The Albany Youth Theatre (AYT) runs every Wednesday during term time.
The Autumn/Winter term for will begin on Wednesday 10th September 2025
Our Youth Theatre is led by an experienced theatre practitioner who works closely with all members to develop performance skills, build confidence and ignite imagination!
No previous drama experience is necessary to take part, just be ready to get involved and have fun!
All members will have the opportunity to work towards regular performance opportunities, exploring a wide range of theatre genres and techniques.
As part of the Albany’s values, we want to make everyone feel welcome and comfortable. So the first session for each child is free to see if it is right for them. Then payment can be made for the term after that session if they are happy and keen to stay on.
