YOUtheatreUK is run by professional theatre company 2 Boards & A Passion. Find out more about who we are here.

YOUtheatreUK puts the main emphasis of what we teach on the interests and needs of our members. Classes will teach young people not only drama and theatre skills, but will help build their confidence and self-esteem and give them the ability and skils to cope with everyday situations regardless of their theatrical aims and ambitions.

So what makes us different? First of all, Kathryn and Colin have nearly 50 years of acting experience between them, and almost 30 years experience in running a youth theatre and teaching drama and theatre skills to young people. This means we know what makes a successful, friendly youth theatre, and more importantly, how to get the most out of the young people who attend our classes.

We also want to make sure that the members of YOUtheatreUK have a say in what we do and how we do it! You will be able to give us YOUR input into how YOUR youth theatre is run and what we perform.
