Youth theatre group to hit the London stage
9:33am Friday 25th April 2008
Comments (0)THERE was a buzz around the town this week after news broke that the Brewery Youth Theatre had been chosen to appear at London's National Theatre.
The young actors will travel to London on July 7 as part of the acclaimed NT's New Connection youth theatre festival.
Youngsters from the BYT performed Abi Morgan's Fugee at Kendal's Brewery Arts Centre in one of the 16 regional sections of the national event, alongside eight other teenage theatre groups from the North West.
As a result, the group was chosen to perform Fugee in The Olivier - the largest of the three theatres at the National Theatre - which can accommodate 1,150 people in its fan-shaped auditorium.
