We all know what a teenager is right? If you answered ‘a young person aged between 13 and 19 years old’, then you would be correct and can award yourself 10 adult points. We’ve probably all met one and we have certainly all been one. But do we really know what it is like to be one in 2021?
The teens of Youth Theatre Juniors have come together to create an interactive diary, taking you through the mind of a young person. Explore everything and anything to do with teenage life, from their experiences of the global pandemic to demanding new and necessary rights, in this short film.
