Octagon Youth Theatre (Seniors)

Be a part of The Octagon Youth Theatre’s Junior Company, where you’ll get opportunities to perform and be involved in performances both on and off stage. In our youth theatre sessions you’ll play lots of games, create and tell your own stories, develop characters, work from scripts and learn to work as part of a team and theatre company. Our sessions are designed to build confidence, and are the perfect opportunity to make new friends and have fun.

Come and join our dynamic rehearsal room and learn how to devise original and exciting theatre from scratch. If you are aged 12-18, this is an excellent opportunity to push yourself to the next level.  You don’t need any experience to join our Octagon Youth Theatre, just bring energy and a willingness to get creative. The emphasis is on being creative and on enjoyment, but also to be pushed to create something brilliant.

There are no auditions for taking part and everyone is welcome.
