Youth Theatre
Where Imagination Meets Confidence
Cast Youth Theatre is full of fun and creativity, and it’s for young people aged 3–26.
We’re an exciting, high-energy group that mixes drama games, singing, dancing, and imagination.
Cast Youth Theatre is for everyone. You don’t need to have acted before, just have an interest in theatre and a willingness to try something new. Whether you’re starting out, want to improve your skills, or want to meet others who enjoy performing, you’re welcome here. It’s all about building confidence, boosting self-esteem, and using your imagination in a fun, supportive space.
Each term, groups create short performances to share with family and friends. Every other year, all our youth theatre groups team up to put on a large-scale show on Cast’s main stage.
The different Cast Youth Theatre groups are:
Sparkles
(ages 3-5)
Twinkles
(ages 6-8)
Little Lights
(ages 8-11)
Spotlights
(ages 11-14)
Flood Lights
(ages 14-18)
Bright Lights
(SEND ages 14-26)
