Met Express is The Met’s very own learning disability theatre company.

Our team of adults have been working together over a number of years to develop skills, find new talents and create amazing theatre. Met Express is an inclusive and accessible group run by expert facilitators with a diverse membership with a range of different disabilities.

Met Express is currently operating a waiting list so please get in touch with education@themet.org.uk to enquire before booking on if you are new to the group so that we can make sure that we are able to cater for your needs.

Members are invited to use the link on the right to book and pay for sessions on a half-termly basis. You can also pay at The Met ticket office if you choose.

Please note there are no sessions on 16 February for the Monday group and 17 February for the Tuesday group due to half-term.

Met Express is kindly supported by the Baily Thomas Foundation.
