ARTRIX and the Birmingham Rep have joined forces to put the young people of Bromsgrove on the professional stage.
The exciting new collaboration will bring aspiring young actors a unique opportunity to work with a professional theatre maker.
The project, coined Artrix Young Rep, is to be launched at Artrix next month and will enable 14 to19-year-old talents to develop their acting, voice and improvisation skills.
There will also be performance opportunities at Artrix and Birmingham Rep and participants will be able to create and produce thought-provoking, vibrant and fun contemporary theatre.
Artrix’s director Hannah Phillips said: “We are delighted to be partnering with Birmingham REP and offer this exciting training opportunity for young people in Bromsgrove who are serious about acting and performing.
“They will train with a Birmingham REP youth theatre director and have opportunities to perform at both Artrix and The Birmingham REP.”
Birmingham REP associate director Steve Ball added: “The REP is committed to providing opportunities for young people from across the West Midlands to work with professional theatre makers to create and produce a broad range of high quality theatrical experiences.
“We are very excited about the opportunity to engage with young people in Bromsgrove and develop a working partnership between Artrix and the Birmingham Repertory Theatre.’
Sessions will take place every Wednesday from 5 pm to 7 pm from September 21 and cost £110 per term.
