In addition to two seasons per year of professional theatre with some of the finest actors and directors from across the countrywe put a lot of emphasis on youth development. A School of Acting, Youth Choir and holiday workshops offer a variety of performance opportunities for young people from the surrounding area.

There are two seasons of Repertory Theatre each year. A variety of plays are chosen, from comedy to classic writing and each one is cast using established actors, designers and directors.

The Young Rep Holiday Workshops

Summer holiday workshops are held each year on the main stage. Young people rehearse a show for one week and perform it to an audience on the final day. Intense but great fun and always popular!

Unfortunately, due to a number of circumstances, the summer workshops have been postponed this year.

Our programme of workshops will resume as normal next season and will be notified on the website.

We apologise for any inconvenience caused.

 

The Young Rep Choir

Under the direction of established session musician and teacher, Gladstone Wilson, the youth choir meets on Monday evenings during term time from 5pm to 7pm for young people aged between 10 and 18. A varied repertoire includes musical theatre, pop, jazz, gospel and soul. There is an annual concert in the main auditorium, in addition to local festivals and events. No experience is necessary and you don't have to be a great singer. You just need lots of enthusiasm and a love of singing!
