Marlowe Youth Theatre Relaunch!

THE Marlowe Youth Theatre is pleased to announce the new collaboration with Canterbury-based, Whippersnapper Theatre Company. The company will be leading the weekly sessions at the St Peter’s Methodist Church in Canterbury on Tuesday evenings.
Whippersnapper performed at the Marlowe Theatre open day this summer, as well as regular working with children in local schools. They also had a successful run in this year’s Canterbury Festival to critical acclaim.
Kim Savage from the Marlowe Theatre said, ‘we are very excited to be working with Whippersnapper in the New Year. The Marlowe is committed to providing the opportunity for local young people to be involved within the arts. We want to expand young people’s idea of what theatre can be and encourage them to try new thing – and of course, have fun!’
The Marlowe Youth Theatre is re-launching on the January 18 with lots of new benefits for members, including radically discounted tickets to shows as well as the chance to perform on the Marlowe stage. There are two groups, 10-13 and 14-16 year olds. Skills will be developed in improvisation, characterisation and storytelling.
Places are currently available in each group. For more information and to receive an application pack, please contact Kim Savage on 01227 828355 or kim.savage@canterbury.gov.uk
