Youth Theatre

With funding from Foyle’s Foundation and the Sobel Trust, Extant has begun our Youth Theatre project. Starting in January we set up 3 20-week sessions of workshops in 3 different schools in Sutton, Bethnal Green and Greenwich, which later changed to Lambeth.

We have a pool of visually impaired workshop leaders who run the sessions with a project manager to co-ordinate the schools and Creative Director to design the overall programme content. The sessions have been going from strength to strength, with group members working on different performance styles and devising an end of term presentation to be shown in July.
