Classes & Events
We offer classes and performance opportunities in Ballymena and Coleraine. See details below.
Back in 2023 we started out on an amazing journey performing I Love You Mum - I Promise I Won’t Die by Mark Wheeler with our youth theatres in Ballymena and Coleraine. This verbatim play, telling the true story of teenager Daniel Spargo-Mabbs and his death after taking illegal MDMA, had a profound effect on both us and our young people. Dan’s tragic story had entered into our hearts and we knew we weren’t ready to stop telling it
After many many months of work, we are delighted to announce that we have been commissioned by The Daniel Spargo-Mabbs Foundation to tour the play to schools across Northern Ireland. This will be the first EVER schools tour in Ireland of the play and we are beyond honoured to be the theatre company chosen to do it.
If you are interested in booking a performance of the play along with a drug education workshop please email play@dsmfoundation.org.uk
Both us and the charity are very much hoping that this will be the start of expanding their reach in Northern Ireland. Stay tuned to find out more.
We are beyond ecstatic to announce that for a second year running we have been successful in our application to be part of Connections 2025.
Connections is the National Theatre in London’s annual, nationwide youth theatre festival. We will be allocated a brand-new script which we will perform in a home venue in Spring 2025 and then we will get to take the performance to the Lyric Theatre in Belfast in April. We will be guided in this process by the National Theatre, getting to meet the playwright at a director’s weekend in London and then a member of the National coming to watch our home performance, giving us feedback and a Q&A.
This is a once in a lifetime opportunity for your young person, being part of an exclusive festival, guidance from one of the UK’s leading theatres and the chance to perform in the Lyric Theatre! This process is open to EVERYONE aged 13-19 and will be based off audition standard. A £5.00 audition fee will be taken off everyone who signs up.
