About Young People's Performance Project

Youth Performance Project (Ages 11–18)

This Sunday Shed session is all about building skills in drama, dance, and music in a creative, collaborative space. Led by Chickenshed’s experienced practitioners, the Youth Performance Project offers a chance to develop your performance practice, explore new ideas, and work as part of a supportive ensemble.

Each term ends with a short performance in the Rayne Theatre - a chance to share your journey and creativity with family and friends.
