Education at Warwick Arts Centre

Warwick Arts Centre Youth Theatre

  •  Are you between 8 and 18?
  •  Do you want to improve your drama skills?
  •  Would you like to perform at Warwick Arts Centre?

Yes! Then the Warwick Arts Centre Youth Theatre could be the place for you.

When?
The Youth Theatre is split into 4 age groups and runs on Saturday mornings and Monday evenings. The groups are divided as follows:

Youngest Group     8 – 11 yrs
Middle Group         11 – 14 yrs
Oldest Group         14 – 16 yrs
Senior Group         16 – 18 yrs

The youngest, middle and oldest group attend on a Saturday morning.

11.00am – 12.00pm         Session 1
12.00pm – 12.30pm         Lunch break within Arts Centre
12.30pm – 1.30pm           Session 2

The Senior Group attend on a Monday evening (Autumn & Spring terms only)

7.30pm to 9.30pm (with a break!)

Each term runs for 10 weeks in line with The University of Warwick term time. This year’s term dates are:

Sat 6 October 2007 – Sat 8 December 2007
Sat 12 January 2008 – Sat 15 March 2008
Sat 26 April 2008 – Sat 28 June 2008

What Happens?
The sessions cover a wide range of skills including text, improvisation, mime, Shakespeare, mask and music and of course lots of games. It also gives you the opportunity to increase confidence, make new friends and improve team work.

We aim to organise one trip in the Autumn and Spring terms to see a professional show at Warwick Arts Centre. In the Summer term, it’s all hands on deck to produce an original performance which is shown to friends and family in Warwick Arts Centre’s Studio Theatre.

How Much?
Youth Theatre costs £35.00 per term for Saturday groups, and £50 per term for the Monday group and is paid by cheque or cash at the start of each term. The cost of attending a show is additional to this.
