Bury Youth Theatre Juniors is a place where you can be yourself, be creative and find new talents with like-minded friends.

Our very own youth theatre is a supportive environment where young people come together to learn new skills and create their own shows. Led by highly trained professional facilitators, BYT can help young people find their first steps on the path to a career in the performing arts, or simply provide a creative outlet.

This group specialises in creating devised theatre, exploring improvisation, physical and vocal skills, scriptwriting and more, helping young people explore theatre skills in a safe and supportive environment. 

If your child is interested in learning more and joining BYT as a new member please email education@themet.org.uk

Parents and carers are welcome to request a copy of our Safeguarding policy by emailing education@themet.org.uk.
