The award winning Lace Market Youth Theatre is open to anyone aged between 11 and 18. We run a busy programme of activities including drama workshops every Saturday morning from 10.30am to 12.30pm, during term time.

Workshops are aimed at giving practice and guidance on performance skills and theatrical understanding through practical activities, in a friendly social environment.

In addition to workshops, we also put on one major public production in the theatre's main auditorium (16 to 21 March 2026) and some other shorter pieces that are put forward into the NANDA Festival.

Membership fee of £55 is payable if you are joining for our 2025/26 season. Our open days / auditions to see what we offer and join in some drama games and meet the group are on Saturday 13th and 20th of September 2025, details available here.
