The Georgian Theatre Royal Youth Theatre

The Georgian Theatre Royal Youth Theatre runs 7 sessions per week providing 150 members access and training in all areas of theatre and stage craft. Our classes and workshops cover many areas of theatrical skills, from acting to directing and from singing to stage management. We believe that the process of learning these skills is as important as the final product, and our productions aim for the highest standard.

If you’re aged between 4 and 18, and would like the opportunity to make new friends, learn new skills, and perform in a unique, magical theatre then the Youth Theatre is for you.

We run the following sessions:

Monday 4.30-5.30pm Minis: 4-7 years (Reception – Year 2)

Monday 6-8pm OR Tuesday 4-6pm OR Saturday 9.30-11.30am Juniors: 7-11 years (Year 3 – Year 6)

Wednesday 4-6pm OR Saturday 12.00-2pm Middles - 11-14 years (Year 7 – Year 9)

Thursday 4-6pm OR Saturday 3-5pm Seniors: 14-18 years (Year 10 – Year 13)

Tickets are £4.50 per session (£3 for Minis). Sessions are paid for in a block booking.
Due to the great amount of interest in the Youth Theatre, we are not currently taking any more applicants to our waiting list.
