Resuming Thursday 26th September
Young Creatives is a free, 12-month professional development programme for 18-30 year-olds.
Whether you’re an early career artist looking to upskill yourself, or perhaps you’ve never been to the theatre before and just want to flex your creative muscles, we've got your covered.
Young Creatives Weekly Sessions
The programme consists of weekly workshops, masterclasses and Q&A sessions with leading theatre professionals from across Suffolk, East Anglia and the wider UK. They’ll cover all aspects of the theatre industry from writing and performing, to producing, directing, stage management, costume design and everything in between.
The weekly sessions are advertised via our website, and bookable up to a month in advance. It’s first come, first served, and places are limited!
As a member of the Young Creatives you can pick and choose which sessions you want to attend, tailoring your experience to your areas of interest. We strongly recommend attending as many sessions as you can throughout the year to get the most out of it – you never know what you might discover along the way.
Young Creatives End of Year Project
Following our summer break, the young creatives programme will be resuming on Thursday 26th September by launching an exciting project. Throughout the autumn/winter season into January 2025, Young Creative members will have the opportunity to put the skills they have developed over the last 10 months to good practice, developing a final creative project together, which will be presented at the Sir John Mills Theatre (Eastern Angles Centre).
Eastern Angles will support and guide the young creatives, with both mentoring and funding, but the project will be led and delivered by the Young Creatives themselves, bringing together their skills in performing, writing, devising, directing, writing, producing and more.
Important details:
Young Creatives is currently on a summer break and will resume Thursday 26th September.
Sessions run every Thursday, 5pm-7pm at the Eastern Angles Centre.
All sessions are free to attend.
