About
Thame Youth Theatre
Thame Youth Theatre
Thame Youth Theatre is a non-profit organisation based in Thame. We have been running for 30 years putting on many productions of Dance and Drama for children ages 7-18. We aim for all the children to expand on their ability and confidence within the performing arts while also having fun and making friends. Thame Youth Theatre prides itself in offering affordable Dance and Drama classes as well as exciting opportunities outside of the youth theatre including Honeycomb Festival and Thame Music In The Park for our pupils to take part in.
Due to our growing classes and out support from Simon Drake Photography, he is offering a scholarship in order to support a student in their participation of the Youth Theatre.
We are supported by our wonderful parents who kindly donate costumes for us to use in our shows. We are also lucky enough to have support from Character Fancy Dress who supply some of our costumes for or shows. We are very grateful for their support and great costumes!
