In October Bromyard Youth Theatre took to the stage to perform in ‘Big’ The Musical at The Conquest Theatre. This was a fantastic opportunity for our community Youth Theatre members to be a part of a full-scale musical alongside The Conquest’s talented adult performers. Barnaby and Alana, Senior YT members, took on leading roles and absolutely held their own alongside experienced performers. With the rest of the Youth Theatre taking on other named characters and ensemble roles, bringing the story to life with their energy and enthusiasm. We asked a lot from our members – long rehearsals, with difficult songs and demanding dance routines to learn, but all the Youth Theatre did an incredible job at rising to the challenge.

We pride ourselves on providing these opportunities for all of our Youth Theatre members as the skills (performance based and personal) that are developed through working on something like this is invaluable. The feedback from the Youth Theatre and their families has been amazing!

Check out the amazing comments we received below!

‘Just a note to say thank you so much for all your work and support for YT. Penny is exhausted and also so proud and delighted to have been involved and I know it’s done wonders for her confidence. Thanks again for taking such good care of her.’

‘They’ve had an amazing time and will treasure the memories’

‘A wonderful experience in such a nurturing environment. It was a pleasure to watch them all.’

‘Just wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone involved in the production of BIG The Musical. Emilia has had the most amazing time. It is so great that she can do what she loves doing in such a nurturing environment and if the opportunity to do more with the adult group arises in the future, she would love to be involved and she now has the confidence to do it!’

‘Thanks for providing all of these opportunities to the children and young people, we do really appreciate it.’
