Junior Showcase 2025

The Abandoned Umbrella – written by Rachel Lewin
It’s early on a Monday morning and it’s pouring with rain. You’re on your way to work – sitting on the 7.42 train to London. You get off at your destination and yes – you’ve guessed it – you leave your lovely umbrella behind!
Join us on an unforgettable journey with an abandoned umbrella. Love is in the air, spies are on a secret mission, storms and shipwrecks lead us to a desert island and a school musical is in full swing. The umbrella gets in on all the action… but will it ever find a home again?

Changes – written By Mary Benzies
“Change is making something different, replacing one thing with another. Change is adapting, moving on, growing up!”
Everyone at some point must face the inevitable change of moving from primary school to secondary school. As Summer turns to Autumn and we watch the seasons change, we travel with our young actors through the ups, the downs, the worries and the excitement that this very big change brings.
This performance is the culmination of many weeks of creative exploration. Much of the dialogue is taken verbatim from the wonderfully honest conversations that occurred in our workshops.

Founded in 2001, we are so proud to be celebrating our 23rd ANNIVERSARY this year.
We make theatre for, with and about young people and this year’s Junior Showcase reflects the incredible talent and creativity of our wonderful young casts.
