A different kind of youth theatre.

Our Youth Academy is a creative home for young people who want to make brilliant theatre, be completely themselves and find a company where they truly belong.

We bring together experienced young performers, complete beginners and everyone in between. You don't need to be the best singer in the room. You don't need years of dance training. You don't even need to be sure that performing is "your thing" yet. If you want to give it a go, work hard, be brave and be apart of something special, there is a place for you here.

Through acting, singing and movement, our young people are encouraged to play, explore, take creative risks and discover what they're capable of - all within a safe, inclusive and genuinely supportive company.

But don't mistake inclusive for unambitious. We create bold, exciting productions, challenge our young people to grow and give those who want to take their performance training further the opportunity to do exactly that.

We're also proud to offer our young people the opportunity to gain recognised performance qualifications through our collaboration with Mountview. The best bit? There's no separate exam preparation or added pressure - assessments are built into the performances they're already working towards. Smash the show, gain a qualification and, at the higher levels, earn valuable UCAS points along the way.

No stars. No cliques. No pressure to fit a mold.

Just brilliant young people making brilliant theatre together.

Train. Perform. Belong.
