Youth Theatre

As our largest project, Youth Theatre specialises in training performers in all forms of acting, singing and dance to perform in public stage productions.

At Project Theatre, we believe in the power and potential of performance and creativity. Youth theatre helps young people build confidence, express themselves, and develop strong communication skills. It also nurtures teamwork, empathy, leadership, and collaboration.

It’s a fun and inspiring way to learn a wide range of theatre and performance skills, all while making lasting friendships in a friendly, supportive environment. As well as musical theatre productions, youth theatre also have training workshops, take part in festivals & community events and attend theatre trips.

Our Youth Theatre is a year long activity and made up of approx. 90-100 performers from across Falkirk across the two groups - Junior (8-11yrs) and Senior (12-18yrs) Youth Theatre.

Annual Production

The Youth Theatre year starts with workshops, auditions and rehearsals process from January leading towards musical theatre productions usually taking place in May/June (Junior) and September/October (Seniors).

Winter / Christmas

At the end of every year eachYouth Theatre perform a festive production usually in November December such as a Cabaret/Variety show, Pantomime or festive performance.

We also may do carol singing and other festive activities in the community and alongside other groups in the PT family.
