BACKGROUND HISTORY ON THE PRINCES
THEATRE YOUTH COMPANY
There has been a thriving Youth Theatre Group at
the Princes Theatre since October 1994. In an effort to encourage
children to become more actively involved in theatre, a programme
of Wednesday evening theatre workshops were introduced to give
young people an opportunity to develop their talents across a range
of performing arts. Students from 7 years to young adults have
attended classes every Wednesday during term time and participated
in dance, drama and musical theatre. Whilst we appreciate some
students may wish to specialise in one particular subject our aim
has always been to give overall performance training with lots of
performance opportunities on the large professional stage of the
Princes Theatre.
Almost immediately the workshops proved to be a huge
success, so much so it was decided to showcase students' hard work
and in March 1995 over 80 students took part in our first ever
production, "Bugsy Malone". Many other shows followed.
2007 - WE WILL ROCK YOU
2008 DISCO INFERNO
2008 SLEEPING BEAUTY
Over the years weekly workshops and annual
productions have been a huge success. Each year the Company present
a stage musical or play followed by a traditional Christmas
pantomime. Members of the Company have performed in the District's
twin town of Biberach in Germany and several students have
progressed to full time employment in the entertainment
industry.
We are working on new and exciting plans for the
Youth Theatre Company at the moment. We would love to hear from you
if you'd like to get involved in our shows and activities and join
the Youth Theatre Company.
