Young Theatre Makers: Summer School 2026 - Ages 14-18

OUR POPULAR SUMMER SCHOOL IS BACK! Join us this summer to create a brand-new piece of theatre at Tobacco Factory Theatres. Designed for people aged 14-18, this exciting week-long course invites young creatives to collaborate, experiment and bring their ideas to life. Working with a friendly team of experienced theatre practitioners, young people will spend five days developing an original performance from scratch. Together we'll devise scenes, create characters, write scripts, design sets and build props -- all while developing performance skills through games and practical exercises. The week will culminate in a performance in our professional Factory Theatre on Friday 21 August 2026 at 4pm. This is a brilliant opportunity for young people interested in drama and theatre-making to get creative, have fun and collaborate on a performance. Whether you're a theatre fanatic or interested in trying something new, we'd love to welcome you to Summer School 2026!
