“I feel like it’s helped with resilience, confidence, like creativity and stuff. And I feel like that’s important because no matter where you go in life, it can be applied to anything you do”
Beswick Young Company have worked with professional playwrights and artists to create radio plays, ambient music, full productions and much more. They have performed during the East Manchester Community Festival and at the Royal Exchange Theatre.
The Beswick Young Company has been running since June 2022, it was created due to a lack of arts provision for young people in Beswick, Openshaw and Clayton, as identified with the Royal Exchange Theatre Local Ambassadors.
This project has been made possible by the support of One Manchester.
