What happens at the Open Day?

Arrival and registration from 1.30pm

Join us for a free two-hour workshop exploring an introduction to the National Youth Theatre's ethos and approach to ensemble theatre making. As part of the workshop explore self-taping for auditions, ideal for those who have not experience self-taping before or who want to further explore their approach.
