Platform Young Company is a place for young people aged 16-25 who have an interest in performance.
The company is open to members of all abilities and no previous experience required.
PYC is a supportive space for new and emerging performers and performance artists to continue developing their skills and confidence as they move from full-time education and youth theatre into the creative industries and other sectors of the professional world.
Participants will collaborate with one another and two practising theatre makers to develop a rich experience in all aspects of devised theatre. You will have the opportunity to explore your own ideas on a weekly basis, where the focus will be on developing your skill set in a supportive, creative and fun working environment.
You will learn new ways of working with text, image and movement and work towards public performances. You will gain confidence in working with your own interests and ideas and learn new approaches to collaborating with others.
The Young Company can support up to 20 individuals each term. Membership is open to all regardless of experience and offered on a first come, first served basis.
Sessions are currently delivered free of charge using Zoom. To register an interest in joining or simply ask a question about the Platform Young Company please send us an email to info@platform-online.co.uk
