Hundreds of eager young creatives descended on Havelock North last week as the National Youth Drama School returned to Hawke’s Bay.
The eight-day programme saw students aged 14-19 come from all over New Zealand and beyond to take part in a series of masterclasses and performances together.
Now in its 32nd year, the event at Havelock North High School saw students immerse themselves in the worlds of film, design, technical theatre, songwriting, editing, dance, circus skills, podcasting and more.
Workshops were taught by industry professionals, who are both active in their creative field and passionate about sharing their skills and experience.
