Our Senior Youth Theatre have produced Theatre-in-Education work for local schools and devised original performance work for major charities and organisations. YOUTH THEATRE SHOW
Our annual Youth Theatre Show gives our youth theatre members the chance to be a part of a performance on the New Vic’s main stage. The work shown in performance is backed by all the skills of an international-class producing theatre, including professional input from the New Vic’s team of directors, designers, lighting, sound and stage management; this is a truly unique experience within the region. Being part of the Youth Theatre Show is thrilling and hugely rewarding. Places are limited and to take part you must audition. It is also a commitment; you will need to find time for some intensive rehearsals and performances. To find out more please contact us.
