EchoGuide Theatre Launch

✨ What You'll Experience

The Story Behind the Tool Hear how EchoGuide Theatre grew from real classroom challenges, rehearsal frustrations, and a founder who built it while performing, parenting, working full-time, and completing a Senior Leadership Apprenticeship at Master's level. This tool was built from the inside out — by someone who lives the reality it solves.

Live Demonstration EchoGuide Theatre is live and available to buy today. At the event, see it in action and explore it on your own device. Features include:

• Real-time highlighting
• Vocal, movement, and emotional cueing
• Colour-coded performance heatmaps
• Accessibility-first design for mixed-ability casts
• Multi-language options
• Safeguarding-first, research-backed framework throughout

Starter Kit (Free for All Attendees) Every guest receives:

• A hands-on demo of EchoGuide
• Purple pen, lanyard and stickers
• Free tea and coffee

On-the-Day Bundle Take EchoGuide Theatre home with you. Purchase your subscription on the day and receive:

• Your EchoGuide Theatre subscription (£14.99/month or £99/year) and free access for 7 days
• Teacher Survival Kit
• Bookmark and stickers
• Personal onboarding time with Fliss

Community & Conversation Connect with teachers, directors, and theatre practitioners who are shaping the future of accessible, emotionally intelligent rehearsal. This is a networking event as much as a celebration — bring your questions, your experiences, and your colleagues.

🎟️ Tickets Free to attend, but booking is essential so we can prepare your Starter Kit. Numbers are limited to keep the experience personal and valuable.

On the Day?

So here's what I'm thinking for you, if you're local or can make the trip: why not make a day of it? Book a table for lunch at the CSONS restaurant in the Pavilion, take a little time to enjoy the views over Castle Green and the Wye, and then come and join us from 1:30pm for a conversation about EchoGuide Theatre and what it means to help young people find something unshakable in themselves when they step into performance.

Parking There is on-street parking on Castle Street; please be mindful of paying at the meter. If you'd rather not chance the limited spaces, the Halo Leisure Pool car park is a lovely alternative - but there is still a payment needed - and gives you a short walk back over Victoria Bridge to the Pavilion.

What to bring A script you'd like to try, if you have one; a monologue, a poem, a set text, or anything that means something to you. If you'd rather not bring your own, we'll have examples ready for you to drop straight into the tool.

A phone, tablet, or laptop, if you'd like to use EchoGuide Theatre yourself during the afternoon.

The Stay & Play hour The final hour is yours. We'll help you get logged in, set up your first script, and see how the tool actually works in your hands. No pressure to stay if you can't, but if you can, this is the part most people tell us they'll remember.

📋 CPD Study Beyond English is working towards formal CPD accreditation. This event is not yet CPD-accredited, but all participants will receive a certificate of attendance, a clear outline of learning outcomes, evidence of hours completed, and guidance on logging this with their professional body or CPD tracker.

Now being held out of school hours, we hope to welcome more teachers and those working in schools who want to support their students with their confidence and clarity when speaking aloud.
