CURRENT PROJECTS

Here's some of what the SAVVY Young Company is up to right now (or preparing to get up to in the near future) ...

Celebrating Surrey Festival
Sunday, 27th June 2010
Watch out – there’s a roving bus stop about, with a long queue of strange characters all waiting for the number 702. Will they find love? Will they make a nuisance of themselves? Or will they simply continue to read their newspapers?

Developed as part of the Sutton Youth Drama Festival in May and performed by the SAVVY Young Company, this Commedia del’Arte style piece could spring up anywhere – so watch out, or you could find yourself in an endless queue, waiting for a bus that might never appear!

 

Creating Tales

6pm, Sunday 11th July 2010
Secombe Theatre, Sutton

Come and join us in the enchanted forest where tales are spun and magic created!

This very special performance event brings together a number of learning disabled drama groups from across Sutton, Croydon and the surrounding boroughs.

Tickets: £5.00
(available from the Secombe Theatre box office: 0208-770 6990)

 


The SAVVY Young Company will be supporting this unique event with their production of A Midsummer Nights Dream.

Theatre Trips

SAVVY Young Company members also have the opportunity to go on many theatre trips either locally or up to London. During the summer term 2010 they will be seeing A Midsummer Nights Dream at Shakespeare's Globe Theatre.

Past West End shows have included:
STOMP
The History Boys
The 39 Steps
Billy Elliot
On many of these trips the group has also had the opportunity to meet with the cast after the performance.

Aside from any help needed with professional auditions or requirements for college/university placements, SAVVY members have the opportunity to take LAMDA examinations. These are now a recognised accreditation and involve performing in front of an independent examiner at the Academy in London.

SAVVY is also a registered ARTS AWARD Centre and many young company members are currently completing their Bronze & Silver levels.
