Hull Truck Youth Theatre
Hull Truck Youth Theatre gives young people the opportunity to experience the excitement, creativity and enjoyment that go hand in hand with drama and also make lasting friendships with others. Youth Theatre workshops open to anybody aged between 7 and 21 yrs and interested in drama, acting and the theatre. We run 10 workshops per term at a cost of £20, payable at the start of each term.
Workshops take place on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday evenings and Saturday during the day throughout term-time. These sessions look at all aspects of theatre including mask work, street theatre, improvisation, movement, script work, vocal work, multi-characters, stagecraft and technique; all aimed at boosting confidence, social skills, creativity, imagination, team building...the list goes on!
Productions
We perform two professionally-supported productions at Hull Truck Theatre each year, with past shows including Kes and Stags and Hens: The Remix to name but a few!
These are professional shows performed to sellout audiences and are always a huge success! Performing in one of these shows is by no means easy, but it is certainly rewarding, heaps of fun and a spectacular start to your stage career!
"Joining the Youth Theatre was a fantastic experience that ultimately led to me landing my first professional role on the Hull Truck stage and securing an agent.
I made many friends over the years and had a great time. If you are interesting in pursuing an acting career, I would definitely recommend joining the group"
Rachel Helen, Actress
Former Youth Theatre member Rachel made her professional acting debut in Hull Truck's 2006 world premiere production of UP ON ROOF, written by acclaimed playwright Richard Bean.
