The
National Youth Theatre (NYT) is fundamentally a place of creative learning,
a place where young people learn through active engagement and experience
rather than through strictly formal pedagogical structures. As an educational
centre and a resource for learning, NYT promotes artistic excellence,
cultural enrichment and personal and professional development; providing
young people with unparalleled creative learning experiences.We deliver our own
specialist brand of courses in acting and technical skills and offer
further training and progression routes through productions, projects,
new writing courses, volunteering opportunities and accredited courses
for young people at risk. We also develop important partnerships with
the formal education sector delivering projects both locally and nationally
using drama made by, and for, young people. These projects include relevant
and high impact workshops, resources and live performances.
