New Youth Theatre Group launches. The youth theatre company will be run by experienced theatre practitioners and offers professional training in drama and acting techniques and mentoring from industry professionals.
The National Youth Arts Trust (NYAT) has announced that its first Youth Theatre Company will be forming in Ely.
