Orange Tree Theatre Youth Theatre

Join the Orange Tree Theatre's Youth Theatre for 12–14 year olds!

Our weekly sessions are a fantastic opportunity for young people to explore their creativity, make new friends, and develop confidence in a safe and supportive environment. Led by professional directors, theatre-makers, and actors experienced in working with children and young people, these sessions are designed to help members grow as performers and individuals.

  • Sessions run every Tuesday from 5PM – 7PM at the Orange Tree Theatre.
  • Engage in games and exercises that build skills in voice, movement, character building, and text work.
  • Be part of a thriving community, create a show with likeminded peers, and enjoy lots of fun activities.
  • Directors support members to be bold, creative, and passionate in their work.
