There are heaps of ways to step into the world of youth-led theatre, by becoming a member of one of our active youth theatre ensembles. You might already have a passion for theatre, or maybe you’re not sure and you just want to try it out. Read on to find out how you can get involved.

'Since I have been working with Western Edge I have learnt so many things – for example, to speak confidently in front of people and I have improved my English. The group provides a place where people who may be feeling alone can come together and be welcome.'
