Nenagh Youth Theatre

Nenagh Youth Theatre has been the resident youth theatre at Nenagh Arts Centre since 2009. We are dedicated to creating a fun, innovative approach to theatre, challenging perceptions across the arts, and offering young people aged 12–18 weekly professionally led theatre workshops and high-quality arts experiences.

This year, we are excited to offer two Youth Theatre programmes: NYT Players and NYT Explorers.

NYT Players: This programme runs every Saturday from 10:15 am to 12:00 pm.
Participants will explore ensemble building, improvisation, script work, character development, and storytelling. The programme emphasizes teamwork, developing new performance skills, and making new connections. The work created during this programme will be staged in late March. This project is proudly funded by Tipperary County Council and the Tipperary Arts Office.

NYT Explorers: Designed for our oldest current members, this programme focuses on the project “Nenagh: Our Town, Our Story”, a testimony play exploring the history of Nenagh and the experiences of its residents. Participants will work with verbatim theatre, shadow theatre, and advanced acting skills.
*Please note* that this programme is not open to new members and is not suitable for younger participants.
