THE YOUNG THEATRE PROMOTERS


Young Theatre Promoters

Set up by HRAEN in 2014 as part of the Partnership Investment Scheme, the young theatre promoters are a group of performing arts students from Robertsbridge Community College, who work with Applause Rural Touring and Robertsbridge Arts Partnership to bring a variety of professional show to the college for their peers. By working closely with performers and bringing them in for workshops additional to the performance the idea is to encourage more students to see the live show.

All performances are selected, booked and promoted by the YTP's supported by staff and partners.

The YTP's have their own website and social media sites if you would like to know more. Check out their Facebook page for more details on upcoming shows, or scroll down to see more.



NEXT SHOW: Not About Heroes

Wednesday 1st November 2017
At Robertsbridge Community Theatre

Presented by Flying Bridge Theatre Company and Seabright Productions
Performed by Iestyn Arwel and Daniel Llewellyn Williams – Directed by Tim Baker


Stephen Macdonald’s Fringe First winning play about the unique friendship between celebrated WWI poets Wilfred Owen and Siegfried Sassoon. They met at Craiglockhart Hospital in 1917, and bonded over a mutual hatred of war and love of poetry.

This production won a Best Actor accolade at the Wales Theatre Awards, and embarks on a world tour commemorating the centenary of both the meeting depicted in the play, and of the Armistice.

‘Recreates the Great War as tangibly as if the theatre had filled with the smoke and stench of the battlefield. Compelling and superbly performed.’ British Theatre Guide

Gloriator

20th April 2017
Robertsbridge Community College: 7pm


Gloria Delaneuf is well-versed in mime, mask, and the mysteries of stage-craft. Her UK tour manager Josephine Cunningham is not. Together they have created Gloriator – an awe-inspiring production of bravery, honour, and costumes made out of cardboard. Russell Crowe may not be available, but they are determined it will be a show you’ll never forget.
Wonderfully inventive, physical, and very silly, Gloriator was created by French/English female comedy duo Spitz & Co with t...he help of Angus Barr (Publick Transport) and Aitor Basauri (Spymonkey). It won the Critics Choice Award at Exeter Ignite, and was developed with support from Arts Council England and Bristol Old Vic Ferment.

Strictly Balti

Friday 2nd October 2015
Robertsbridge Community College starting 7pm



A show for anyone who ever felt a little bit different growing up... Ballroom dancing is not the only humiliation heaped on a young Saikat. There's public poetry, catechism, and no one getting his name right, ever. Join Saikat as he dances precariously through his dual-identity childhood, torn between the familiar sights of Birmingham and the mysteries of Bangladesh. Meet werewolves in the playground, nuns in the corridors and tangerines in the dancehall... The play takes a humorous look at what it means to be British from someone who had to learn the hard way.

MAGNIFICENT MEN REVIEW

This was a really great show brought to us from the Applause Rural Touring scheme.

A story of daring, and perhaps a little madness, brought to life by these two wonderful actors, a fantastic script and a few props that really showed the fragility of the aircraft in which they crossed the Atlantic. It was a clever interpretation of a simple tale and really left us thinking...why don't more people know the amazing adventure of Capt.John Alcock and Lt. Arthur Whitten Brown...after all they really are national heroes?

The audience thoroughly enjoyed the performance, they laughed all the way through and left great feedback for us.

We are really looking forward to presenting our next show.

All the best from the Young Theatre Promoters.

THOSE MAGNIFICENT MEN: 20TH MARCH

ROBERTSBRIDGE COMMUNITY COLLEGE

Theatre by Brian Mitchell and Joseph Nixon. Award-winning theatre company The Foundary Group joins BBC4 sketch group The Ornate Johnsons for this brand new staging of the hit play about British pioneering aviators Capt.John Alcock and Lt. Arthur Whitten Brown and their daredevil dash across the Atlantic in a converted Vickers biplane.

In this glorified kite they flew from newfoundland through dense fog, sleet, snow and hail - sometimes updside down - to Ireland and worldwide celebrity.

What made they do it?
Why have they been forgotten?
And how can a couple of actors tell it all with just cardboard, two chairs and some left-over props?

Starring The Ornate Johnsons' Brian Mitchell and David Mountfield
(Count Arthur Strong's Radio Show and This Is Jinsy)

Tickets: Adult £6 in advance £7 on the door
