When people think about theatre, film, or events, they often picture bright lights, scripts, and performances. But here’s the secret: what you really gain in those spaces are skills that stretch far beyond the stage. They’re the hidden skills that employers are desperate for — and they’re exactly what young people discover at GGGE.
Think about it. When you are part of a production or planning an event, you’re not just acting or setting up lights. You’re problem-solving on the spot when something doesn’t go to plan. You’re learning how to work as a team, how to listen, and how to share ideas. You’re building confidence to speak in front of others, even when it feels nerve-wracking. These moments are where real growth happens.
Employers call them “transferable skills,” but for us, they’re simply life skills. Communication, creativity, resilience, teamwork, leadership — all the things that make someone stand out in an interview or on the job. And the best part is you don’t learn them by reading a textbook. You learn them by doing, by creating, by being in the middle of something exciting and real.
At GGGE, we design every project to spark these skills. Whether it’s film, theatre, or festivals, learners discover abilities they didn’t even know they had — and those abilities stick with them long after the curtain falls.
So, here’s the invitation: if you want to build creativity, confidence, and the hidden skills that employers love, come and join GGGE. It could be the first step towards opportunities you never thought possible.
