“Rosie teaches with such kindness. It's a joy to leave a workshop with such rich knowledge made digestible and fun. Her personability and attention to the room makes any workshop of hers a joy to be apart of.”

— Adult participant, Playwriting Workshop 2026

“Cann truly cares about what she is teaching, she holds a deep knowledge of the fundamentals of acting, the history of theatre, and how to be a kind person.

I’d recommend her classes to anyone, young or old, wanting to learn more about the limitlessness of theatre, or just someone looking for a welcoming and creative space to be a part of.”

— Youth Participant, Devising Workshop 2026

“Rosie managed to command a group of the most self-conscious 14-year-old girls, to lose our nerves and run around as a pack of lawless, out-going, greedy goblins. It was the work of a master educator. I learnt a lot that day. Now as a young adult, I still find myself learning from all her classes.”
