Youth Theatre restarts

Trinity Youth Theatre’s production of ‘The Grinch’ in 2019

Cowes Amateur Dramatic & Operatic Society (CAODS) have announced the restart of their Youth Theatre.

Starting last Sunday, Trinity Youth Theatre is open to anyone aged 8-16 who would like to learn more about all aspects of theatre, and get involved in two performances in the next six months.

Running weekly on Sundays, from 1.30pm-3.30, Trinity Youth Theatre will be free, but membership of CAODS (Cowes Amateur Operatic & Dramatic Society) will be required. Membership is £8 for the year for under-16s.

In March there will be a small production of ‘Robyn Hood’ in the Theatre Clubroom for families and society members to watch. In May, the children from Trinity Youth Theatre will get the opportunity to perform as part of ‘The Likes of Us’, written by Sir Tim Rice. It will be Trinity Theatre’s first major musical in many years.

Dinah Bowman, president of CAODS, said: “It is wonderful that our Youth Theatre is restarting. We have had lots of enquiries to join, as the children so enjoy being involved and they love all that theatre gives them. There are two exciting productions in the pipeline for our young people so we hope that many of our Island children will be joining our Youth Theatre for some fun times.”
