Would you like to represent your youth theatre at Youth Theatre Ireland's annual symposium?
We are looking for youth theatre members or recent alumni (not leaders) aged 18+ to represent their youth theatres at Youth Theatre Ireland's Practice Symposium this November!
The Youth Theatre Ireland Practice Symposium is an annual conference where youth theatre facilitators come together to engage in workshops, talks, and conversations around youth theatre and drama practice.
The theme of our Symposium this year is "Playing For Life" and we are looking for youth theatre members who are passionate about play and creativity to participate in the symposium!
This programme is for youth theatre members who are comfortable staying away from home, are punctual, enjoy meeting new people, responsible, and will represent their youth theatres to a high standard.
This is a great opportunity to meet professional practitioners, collaborate with artists, and share your thoughts on what "Playing for Life" means to you.
The Symposium takes place in Dublin on TU Dublin's campus on November 13th and 14th. You must be fully available on both days to attend. Letters of absence will be supplied for schools/universities upon request.
There will be a public panel as part of the conference where 4-5 members from Emerging Voices will be asked to speak about their experiences at the Symposium.
One night's accommodation in a shared room in a hostel in Dublin city centre, reasonable transport costs, and food costs will be covered by Youth Theatre Ireland.
You must be 18 or over by November 1st and a current member of a Youth Theatre affiliated with Youth Theatre Ireland or a recent Youth Theatre Alumni in order to apply.
Applications will close on Monday October 12th.
