Young Critics
Our young critics programme offers young people aged 11-19 the chance to enhance their critical thinking skills and learn what makes a great theatre production. Through monthly visits to professional productions in and around Bristol, exclusive behind the scenes talks, and reflection and review sessions, each participant will gain a unique insight into theatre production. This is a free programme, starting this summer, and places are reserved for young people from our local community of BS5 Bristol.
