RABBLE Theatre are a local theatre company which delivers high-quality professional theatre and provides an extensive range of outreach and educational work to young people and the community.

RABBLE runs a Young Company for young people aged 8-16, which takes place every Saturday morning, term time. Our Young Company provides young people with the opportunity to:

  • Engage with a professional theatre company and learn from industry professionals.
  • Receive high-quality, varied training in movement, text, devising, voice, Shakespeare, audition technique, directing and the practicalities of working in theatre
  • Develop skills in playwriting and theatre-making.
  • Be part of an inclusive, kind and nurturing community and space.
  • Meet new people and make new friends.
  • Devise a piece of theatre which amplifies their voice and experience of the world
  • Work as part of a company and build team-working skills.
  • Perform in a bespoke venue and with a professional set, equipment and staging.

We are able to provide a limited amount of free places, to begin in the summer term 2022. To fill these places, we are particularly keen to connected with young people who:

  • Come from low-income families
  • Those qualifying for pupil premium
  • Young people facing adversity or social/emotional challenges (to which the arts/creativity feels like it could provide benefits)
  • Those low in confidence, self-esteem or would benefit from developing collaboration skills.
