Youth Theatre Arts Scotland
Youth Theatre Arts Scotland (YTAS) is the national development organisation and umbrella body for Scotland’s youth theatre sector.
We provide direct services to young people, youth groups and their leaders through a combination of
youth theatre projects
training and professional development
information and advocacy
The impact of our work ripples across a national network of year-round local activity.
As youth theatre has evolved as a practice and an art form in Scotland, YTAS has listened to the changing needs and aspirations of its sector. In our development role we have identified and responded to gaps in provision, provided participatory youth theatre opportunities which have transformed young lives, and led the way in delivering training which has galvanized and professionalised the sector.
