To mark the landmark anniversary the youth theatre is delivering a year-long creative programme called ‘Reflections and Revelations: Our People, Our Place and Our Future’ which will capture their extraordinary history, celebrate the memories and milestones and look to the future so they can continue for many years to come.
March is the official 50th Birthday month and the organisation is celebrating with a weekend of fun on Friday and Saturday, March 17th and 18th with three very special events. The first of the Big Birthday Weekend will be a Bingo Boogie hosted by BYT alumni Ollie Daley, aka Diana DoGood, on the Friday. This event is for ages 18 plus only and tickets are £10.
