Torch Youth Theatre Returns for an Action Packed Term!
Torch Youth Theatre Returns for an Action Packed Term!
The Torch Youth Theatre spring term is preparing to welcome new and old members to join their weekly sessions held at the Torch Theatre, Milford Haven. The programme, for young people aged seven to 18, encourages them to understand what it is to be a theatre-maker.
Each week, young people are encouraged to build their confidence through age appropriate creative and engaging skill-building sessions, led by the Torch Theatre’s dedicated team.
“Torch Youth Theatre prides itself on developing the confidence of the young people we work with - it's not just about performing but about helping them to develop their own skills and voices. We know that for many of our young people we provide a safe creative space where they can be themselves with likeminded people, and discover things they are passionate about, as well as forging life-long friendships.” explained Tim Howe, Torch Theatre’s Youth and Community Senior Manager.
He added: “Amongst all the other exciting activities we have planned for our young people this term we'll be announcing our follow up to the smash hit The Wind In The Willows. Watch this space."
The Youth Theatre term costs £90 with Group 1: School years 3 and 4 meeting on Tuesday 4:00pm to 5:30pm; Group 2: School years 5 and 6 meeting on Wednesdays 4:30pm to 6:00pm; Group 3: School years 7, 8, and 9 meeting on Tuesdays 6.30pm to 8:00pm and Group 4: School years 10, 11, 12 and 13 meeting on Wednesdays 7:30pm to 9:30pm.
“We are happy to discuss making payment for all our youth theatre provisions more manageable. If there is a way which you would like to spread the cost which works better for you, please do get in touch with our team and we’ll be happy to help,” said Tim, who can’t wait for the sessions to start.
The Torch Youth Theatre supports young people’s mental health by providing a regular connection for young people with their peers, encouraging them to develop their
imagination, and providing the opportunity for young people to learn new creative, physical, and critical thinking skills.
Tim concluded: “Torch Youth Theatre is a welcoming space for everyone. We know that every young person develops at their own rate and ability is not always linked to age. We aim to make reasonable adjustments to our delivery to ensure that our young people can make the most of their experiences with us. We believe that the young people we work with have the power to make their own stories and change how we all see our world.”
If this sounds like something a young person you know is interested in being part of then please contact the Torch Theatre’s Box office team on 01646 695267 and they will be happy to book you in for your taster session. The sessions start on January 14 and 15.
