Junior Young Company is for children in school years 4-6.

Sessions are designed to develop creative play with lots of games, teamwork, skills building and loads of fun. We further explore using bodies and voices to learn how to tell stories and to turn them into exciting theatre. The emphasis is not on performance at this age but in allowing young people to develop their creativity and curiosity in a safe and fun environment.

There are two Junior Young Company groups, Junior Young Company (Sky) is led by Tia Elvidge.

Please note that parents do not stay in the sessions. Please ensure all young people are collected promptly at the end of the session.
