Step into a week of outstanding theatre with renowned drama school: The Young Actors Company. Our talented young performers take to the stage bringing powerful stories to life in a celebration of young talent, bold storytelling, and the magic of live performance. Whether you are supporting a young actor or discovering us for the first time, we can’t wait to welcome you to an unforgettable week of theatre.
“The quieter the world became, the louder I felt its rhythm.”
What if music lives somewhere deeper than the ear can reach?
Inspired by a true story, Listen follows a young musician who begins to lose her hearing and discovers that sound is not something you simply hear, but something you feel. As doubt surrounds her and the world struggles to understand, she chooses to listen differently.
This is a celebration of resilience, family and finding the courage to be heard.
