in smafier

In|

guidelines,|

and|
||||had Io run smaller groups. Therefoe, the junior
group became a comtrktafion
of exisfing year 6
and 7 chfidren
and the senior
group
year 8s|

the young people
were delighted to be able to lake part in active in|

by young
director Ben|

The NT Directors weekend
was held|

in October, diredor Ben and members of|

and then
in January
a ful lockdown|

afi our sessions had to be taken onfine|

and senkrr|
|rehearsed
during
the first week of the summer|
|---|
|holidays
at the Bush Theatre
and performed
in|
|the studio theabs st the end ofthe week. Due to|
|ongoing Covid rsstrtctbne
audiences
still needed
lo be sochlty distanced,
however we able to do|
|three
separate
performances
to
a
pubNc
audience offamNy, friends and heal people.|
|During the process the parfictpsnls
were finally|
|slkrwed tocome together
in person. They made|
|new friends in the kxsl ares, learnt new skiNs|
|and built their self~fidence
after shng perhd|
|cfsporadh hohfion snd dhrupfion.
Our project isfree to all ofour participants.
Itis|
|indusivs
and non-sehctive,
sll we ask for is|
|coirxnitment
during the whole week. Many ofour|
|members do not get the opportunity
togo on|
|hofiday snd the summer
holidays can be long|
|snd boring and put them st risk ofgelfing into|
|trouble. Bybehg invdved

In drama, working
ceafihhtfiy snd|
|having their voices heard.|
|Performance
projech sre a major part ofthe
WCYT ethos. We believe that itis Important for|
|young people to work towards a finished
product
in order for them tosee and experience the fruih|
|cfIhek labour. As the week progresses,
they|
|dhcover the joys ofworking cdhborsbvely
asa
group, learning valuable
new skilh snd
supporting
each other. Itisa fun and excibng|
|week, wlfich aho takes s kit ofdedhsfion
snd|
|hard work h order to have the show ready to|
|perhrm
on the finsl day. We have in the past
noficed just how empowering
the process of|
|makhg theatre is and our parfictpants
and their
families have reported a real sense ofpride in|
|flair work snd 51stthey aie noticeably iixxs|
|self~fident asa result.|
|Development|
|Since Covid-tg was contkxfing to have such a|
|negative
impact on young people' s|
|mental heafih and wall4eing,
WCTP were keen|
|todesign and deviriop a project ready for when it
was possible to return to some sort ofnormality.|
|It has been an espechfiy diificult tine for the|
|young people who not only mhsed their final|
|arne st primary school but have had svery|
|dhrupfivs
tssiTion to and first year at|
|secohd8ry.|
|WCTP devised a schools' project, in response to|
