Twickenham Youth Theatre

Theatre for young people, by young people.

Founded by Anna Izquierdo, Laura-May Hassan and Samantha Pears in 2021, Twickenham Youth Theatre are a team of professionally trained performers, directors and facilitators working collaboratively with TYT  members to explore and develop new work. 

Our passion lies in helping young people to find their voice through the use of drama games, devising and improvisation. We want our members to feel free to express themselves creatively, to experiment and play together, respect & listen to each other's ideas, guide and encourage their fellow actors and, ultimately, to create work that is empowering to them.

​

TYT core team hold enhanced DBS, 12hr paediatric first aid and Level 3 Safeguarding certificates and always work in teams of at least 2 experienced & passionate facilitators, ensuring that we are well placed to support our young people as they grow their ideas and skills. Throughout the year we are joined by guest facilitators and experts in stage combat, movement, voice and much more. TYT is a safe & supportive space and, as such, guest facilitators are asked to respect and adhere to our Codes of Conduct and Social GRACES, hold enhanced DBS certificates and are joined by a member of the core team; Anna, LM, Sam at every session they lead.
