Theatre in Education
Max & Molly are currently on tour...
Our Theatre in Education experience is currently touring primary schools throughout Suffolk.
Designed to encourage curiosity and imagination, the workshop explores two main ideas; understanding our past and creating a more sustainable future.
At the centre of the story is Rilee, a 1905 classic car, who is brought back to life in the modern world. With the help of our technicians, Max and Molly, the Story of Rilee shows how history and modern innovation can work together, proving that even after more than 120 years, there’s still a place for Rilee in today’s world.
Each session is designed to be interactive and aims to encourage children to ask questions, think differently, and see the world around them in a new way.
This tour is currently fully booked, but we’re exploring opportunities to bring it to more schools in the future.
If your school has a visit from Max and Molly booked, some useful materials can be found here.

Children learn best when they are involved, inspired, and having fun.
Theatre provides a safe space to explore big questions, try out ideas and discover that every voice matters in building a better world.
Our trained actors (technicians) come with wealth of experience in working with and performing to groups of many ages and at many stages of their learning journey. The production will be followed by a group workshop for approximately 15 to 20 minutes and will work best in groups of around 15 to 30 children.
The 2026 Schools Tour Begins:
On Wednesday 22nd April 2026, Max and Molly will be leaving Bridge Classic Cars HQ to visit Suffolk schools for this year’s Theatre In Education schools tour.
The tour has been funded by Bridge Classic Cars alongside our partners; Lancaster Insurance Services, Enable.Services, GB Refinish Supplies, Electronic Terminations, and Riduna Holdings.
Without their help and generosity our educational workshops would not have been able to happen the way we hoped for.
All of our FREE to school places for our April and May tour have been booked up but we hope we can reach many more of you later in the year.
