The last six months have been such a fantastic, fun, and rewarding whirlwind that has once again proven to us the need for accessible youth theatre provisions in rural areas.
We have been absolutely blown away by the response to this project and have felt so lucky to have been able to offer this opportunity to so many young people completely FREE, all thanks to funding from the I AM fund.
This fund has enabled 44 young people to access six months of free youth theatre, have free healthy snacks at each session, and share their hard work at the Pocklington Arts Centre - filmed and shared as part of an international project!
Through this project the young people have learnt skills in performance, singing, dance, stage managing, set design, costume design, prop making, devising, and more. On top of that, we have been able to offer professional development opportunities, such as; headshots, professional photographs of their performances, film of the show (that could be used as a showreel), and discussions on what it's like working in the performing arts industry.
