    Camden Youth Theatre is free to attend and introduces young people who live or go to school in Camden, to the skills they need to make their own inventive new theatre.

    Established in response to local demand for a creative club for young people, Camden Youth Theatre works with top professional theatre-makers, creating new shows and performing at two of London’s best studio theatres: here at Camden People’s Theatre and New Diorama Theatre.

    WHEN & WHERE:

    CYT normally takes place on Tuesday evenings during term-time at Old Diorama Arts Centre and at Camden People's Theatre. It is FREE, there's no experience necessary, and dinner is provided! 

    INTERESTED IN JOINING CYT?

    CYT recruits new members every term. Are you aged 13-19 and living or going to school in Camden? Are you interested in acting, writing, or making music? Then we're looking for you!

    CYT will be running every Tuesday from the 21st January to the 1st of April (except during February half term), including a weekend sharing at Camden People's Theatre in April (date TBC).

    BRING A FREE CYT TASTER WORKSHOP TO YOUR SCHOOL!

    Camden Youth Theatre are offering drama and theatre workshops FREE of charge to schools in Camden in Spring 2025.

    This would be a 1-hour workshop of theatre and movement work - an opportunity to learn more about the CYT programme and try some creative tasks in a safe, pressure-free space, all whilst having fun! This could take place during school hours, in place of a drama or performing arts lesson, or after school.

    Run by Camden People’s Theatre and New Diorama Theatre, CYT is a free weekly creative club for young people aged 13-19 and based in Camden, to build skills and confidence, and make new friends. To discuss booking a free workshop at your school, please contact CYT at cyt@cptheatre.co.uk
