Proteus Youth Theatre 7-11 years old

Proteus Youth Theatre 7-11 year old group supports individuals taking their first steps into the world of theatre!

Helping to kickstart a love of theatre from a young age, we focus on basic drama skills incorporating comedy and improvisation. The sessions are about building confidence, having fun and making friends who share an interest in drama.

I love the 2 hours I spend at youth theatre each week, sometimes I wish it was longer!

-Finley, current Proteus Youth Theatre 7-11’s member

AUTUMN TERM

Terms typically run for 10 weeks. Autumn ’24 term begins Tuesday 10th September an ends on Tuesday 19th November (no session 29/10).

For the majority of the Autumn term the group are continuing to develop an immersive/promenade ‘whodunnit’, which will encourage the audience to be part of the action! This will help them develop their improvisation skills and tapping into each individual’s creativity. 

Performance for family members and friends will take place on Tuesday 22nd October.

JOIN OUR 7-11 GROUP

We offer free taster sessions for young people to come and spend time with the group and see if our youth theatre is right for them. We will have a small number of spaces available for our Spring ’25 term, and sessions on the 5th, 12th and 19th November provide the perfect opportunity to have a trial with the group before signing up to the next term. Please contact us to arrange.
