At Growtheatre Youth Theatre we bring together theatre and being outdoors to develop the whole child. Our members are encouraged to work independently and imaginatively and to consider how the outdoor spaces might inspire them. They are given many opportunities to take ownership of the creative process and come to understand the importance of collaboration, creativity and playfulness.
We run our Youth Theatre in the inspiring outdoor setting of Ecclesall Woods in Sheffield.
During the course of each year, youth theatre members learn a whole host of drama, design, performance and outdoor skills. They are encouraged to work independently and imaginatively and to consider how the outdoor space might inspire them. Youth theatre members come to understand the importance of collaboration and creativity and are given many opportunities to take ownership of the creative process. Towards the end of each year, we work towards making a piece of vibrant outdoor theatre that is performed in an outdoor location.
