Since its formation in 2020, Ballyfermot Youth Theatre (BYT) had existed almost entirely online due to the pandemic. Now, since 2022 we have relocated to our new premises in Ballyfermot where we engage young people in both theatre and film projects. BYT takes on a multi-disciplinary approach to Youth Theatre by incorporating film and production technology as well as traditional drama practices.

BYT is open to young people of the ages 14 – 18 & is hosted at Famlibase where it is facilitated by Stephen Tully and James Peppard.
