Summary

Please apply directly to the College.

Theatre for Children and Young People is a practical training programme for performers and makers from a range of disciplines, that explores approaches to making work for, by and with children and young people.

Underpinning the course is the ambition to define Theatre for Children and Young People as a cutting-edge arts practice, outside (or perhaps alongside) the Applied Theatre framing that so often dominates this area of training, encouraging co-creative processes that balance the sensibilities of the adult artist and the creative voice of children and young people.

Why choose this course?

Expert training: Lead by a team of specialist practitioners and academics, you will work with some of the leading figures in the UK and international Theatre for Young Audiences sector.

Unique approach: You will work in theatre spaces, schools, outdoor spaces, community settings; anywhere that these vibrant audiences ask us to work.

Professional experience: You will learn to devise, perform and make theatre for, by and with children of all ages, including theatre for babies and early years (2-4 year olds), as well as working with children with complex disabilities.

Industry contacts and networking: Work with leading companies, theatres and professional partners including taking part in 'real-world' projects for Arts Council England national portfolio organisation Playground and the Primary Shakespeare Company.

Collaborative and Interdisciplinary: You will work with artists from a range of disciplines and alongside students from other courses including MA Actor Musicianship.
