The Riverside Theatre run Workshops in the Arts for People with a Disability (WAPD) program offer weekly workshops in movement, music, dance and drama for people with disabilities.
The program focuses on improving and developing skills in movement, drama, dance and singing, and each ninety minute workshop consists of a wide range of theatre sports, games and dances.
The activities performed in class are designed to encourage group and individual participation, whilst developing physical well-being, confidence and self esteem.
Towards the end of the fourth term, participants from all classes assemble together to perform an End of Year Concert on the main stage at Parramatta’s Riverside Theatre. The End of Year Concert is an opportunity for the WAPD group to showcase some of their work created in the 2009 classes.
