Young People's Theatre

Our exciting Young People’s Theatre offers workshops to local young people. Workshops are free for Southwark residents and are available for young people aged 7 to 18. After a break of several months, we are relaunching Young People's Theatre with an Easter project on Wednesday April 1st & Wednesday April 8th.

  • Participants get to be part of a company devising their own work as well as performing from scripts. Participants also work on other art forms such as music, dance, puppetry and mask!.
  • The groups have had the opportunity to perform at lots of different venues including Theatre Peckham, Arts Depot, The Globe and the Unicorn Theatre.
  • There are regular trips to other theatres including West End shows.

    • Usually, we have over 100 participants attending our Young People’s Theatre on a weekly basis. Our Young People's Theatre aims to provide drama based workshops to young people who would not normally be able to access such services for social, economic, or other reasons.
