Pendle Hippodrome Youth Theatre

Membership is open to all persons aged 10 and over. We welcome both performing and non-performing members, no previous experience is necessary and no audition is required to be in a production (auditions are held for principal roles). We open to new members after each production but often have to close the doors quickly as numbers are limited. Names are added to a waiting list for the following year.

Annual membership is £20 and then £5 per month for rehearsals.

Youth members are encouraged to take an active interest in all aspects of theatrical work, not just appearing on stage. This may involve building scenery, advertising and promotion, general admin and costumes.

Rehearsals take place on Sunday mornings at The Hippodrome.
