    Situation

    The NFYT is central to our organisations role in supporting, promoting and advocating the role of youth theatre as an accessible activity for young people offering creative, physical and social development. To complement the diverse performance programme the event hosts a unique education package offering skill development to young people through workshops and creative projects facilitated by leading artists. Hosted in Fife in 2009 the event will look to pull youth theatres and school groups from across Scotland and beyond as well as hosting a 6 month outreach project in advance of the event which will create a new youth theatre group for disadvantaged young people from Fife The total cost of the event is £39,000 of which £25,000 has to be achieved through fundraising. We are committed to achieving this level of fundraising to keep the event as affordable and as accessible as possible to all our target young people.
