The YTAS Regional Hub: Inverness is a brand new training event designed for youth theatre practitioners in and around Inverness. This event, taking place at the prestigious Eden Court Theatre from Friday 12 to Saturday 13 January 2024, offers an incredible opportunity for artists to upskill, share practice, and create stronger working relationships within the region.
The agenda for the two-day event is packed with workshops, networking activities, and lively discussions. On Friday, practitioners will explore the creative process from a movement perspective, learn how to design impactful productions on a budget, and engage in a Games Exchange session. Additionally, drama teachers can connect with colleagues and local artists during the Drama Teachers Connect event.
Saturday's workshops will delve into creating climate-conscious theatre projects and supporting neurodiverse young people in youth theatre spaces. These practical sessions aim to inspire and engage while ensuring sustainability and accessibility.
The event is open to anyone who utilizes drama and theatre in their work with young people, including youth theatre leaders, drama teachers, youth workers, and emerging young leaders. Tickets are available for both days or individual workshops, and networking events are free to attend.
YTAS also offers 1-2-1 Business Development Surgeries for those seeking support with projects or organizations. Participants can discuss important aspects of their work with YTAS' Membership Support Coordinator, who will guide them through a range of topics such as safeguarding, governance, and business development.
Thanks to funding from various foundations, YTAS is able to offer bursary places to members attending the Regional Hubs. These bursaries cover the fees and expenses associated with the training.
YTAS Membership is open to all individuals and organizations involved in youth theatre arts. It provides a national network of like-minded people and a safe space for all identities.
Join us at the Regional Hub: Inverness to connect, learn, and grow within the vibrant youth theatre community.
