ACT OUT and ACT UP are our weekly term-time drama groups for young people to provide sessions at a minimal cost, needing no auditions to qualify for a place and accessible to all levels and abilities. ACT OUT is aimed at 5-10yrs, ACT UP is for 11-18yrs, both sessions will cover theatrical skills in acting, storytelling and spoken word, directing, producing, writing, stage-management, dance and singing. Our main philosophy is to build core life skills and support mental wellbeing through performance practice, cultivating a safe and fun environment to encourage the development of cooperation, communication, confidence and creativity.
ACT NOW: Creative Youth CIC is an Arts Award centre. Arts Award’s unique qualifications support children and young people to develop as artists and arts leaders. The programme develops skills for success in 21st century life including creativity, leadership, reflective thinking and communication skills. Young people also develop knowledge and understanding of their chosen art forms by completing various levels of Arts Award: Bronze/Silver/Gold Arts Award and for younger years can start out with Arts Award Discover/Explore. Arts Award is open to anyone aged 25 and under, and embraces all interests and backgrounds. Through Arts Award young people learn to work independently, helping them to prepare for further education and employment.
