Our First Post

Welcome to the Greenock Youth Theatre blog!  Here we hope to keep you up to date with all the goings on at our exciting drama club.  We are currently working on our 5 Minute Theatre piece for the National Theatre of Scotland, exciting stuff! It's all about a magic boat and involves giant scary monsters!  Lots of fun is being had putting it all together.

We had a an amazing visit from the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama in Glasgow last week.  10 second year actors came down and ran workshops with the senior class before performing a specially conceived version of Much Ado About Nothing.  You can see from the photos below that it was a great experience for our young actors, they got to be right in the thick of the action and it really made Shakespeare's famous play come to life.  Hopefully we will have the RSAMD back again as our senior tutor, Andrew McGregor, is in charge of delivering the Theatre in Education module for the classes.
