Tyne Youth Company

Tyne Youth Company is part of Tyne Theatre and Opera House Preservation Trust

About Us

We are a weekly theatre group for children and young people aged 8-17. We run rehearsals every Monday evening from 6pm-9pm, continually working towards performances at the Tyne Theatre & Opera House and within the community. Performances will vary from concerts, musicals, variety shows and plays. 

We look to combine training in each of the main disciplines; singing, dancing and acting. Our aim is to create triple threats from the North East who will be mentored by industry professionals. As the group develops, we will be providing opportunities to attend featured workshops with professional performers and creatives from all aspects of theatre. These will include audition prep, comedy, script writing, sound, lights, stage management, directing, instrument playing and more.

Our mentors have worked and taught within the theatre industry for a number of years and have a wealth of performance experience both on and off stage.

FEES

Our fees are £45 per month per cast member.

TYC believes that no child should be denied the chance to experience the world of theatre due to lack of finance. As such, TYC aims to provide assisted places to as many eligible cast members as possible. Assisted places can vary from a free place to a reduced monthly cost. Further details available in our information pack.
