In collaboration with professional theatre company Ellandar Productions, Applecart Arts is launching their youth theatre company this November/December.
Our pilot programme will consist of four sessions of workshops and rehearsals for 14-18 year-olds run by producer/writer Iskandar Sharazuddin and director Mingyu Lin, culminating in the creation and performance of a new piece of devised theatre by the participants.
The workshops will be built around games and practical activities drawing from personal stories which will be moulded into a performance. We aim to deliver an active and creative process focused towards a performance outcome in order to cultivate both a love and interest in theatre and live performance.
The final performance will be held at 5pm, Saturday the 7th of December at Applecart Arts’ Old Church Room performance space.
