I've had the pleasure of watching my youngest flourish under your expert love, guidance and support. We've watched him grow from a shy child who couldn't remember the words and actions, to a confident, funny half of the comedy duo with his life long pal. What The Young Theatre Company gives our children sets them up for life, and I'm eternally grateful.
I just want to say a huge thank you to The Young Theatre Company for including Leah in the classes and the show. It really means a lot that even though she has a disability she can still be included. A disability doesn't have to define you and Leah certainly showed that tonight. The show was amazing, and every single person in it!
I can’t describe how much my boys gain by way of self esteem, confidence, singing, acting and dancing skills whilst having the best time. If you want the same for your kids, get booked on this fabulous youth theatre in Worksop! PS I am not on commission, it is just the best out of school activity ever. Both our kids describe the theatre as a second home!
