Stage One
​Youth Theatre group

We are launching a brand-new Youth Theatre group for children aged 5-7years in Ashington this Autumn. 

Sessions take place at Ashington Family Hub on Mondays 16:00 - 17:00 during term time. 

Over the last
two years, we’ve had LOADS of requests from our Mortal Fools Ashington community, to start a group for children under 7 and we’ve decided to make it happen! We’ve been chatting to parents, carers, teachers and children themselves, about the types of things they’d like this group to offer and how it might support members through creativity! 


This new group will be weekly, during term time, free to join and will take place at Ashington Family Hub. 
Parents and carers can currently express an interest in a child joining this group by registering with Mortal Fools Youth Theatre.  

Members of this group will: 
  • Have lots of fun! 
  • Get creative and have a go at different art forms. 
  • Make friends. 
  • Play drama games. 
  • Work with professional artists. 
  • Develop performance skills & confidence. 
  • Enhance communication skills. 
  • Have their voice and opinions heard. 

We will be running free taster sessions for children across September and October to give the group a go and to meet our lovely welcoming practitioners, so watch this space.  

For now, you can express a child’s interest in joining this new group by registering for Mortal Fools Youth Theatre. When we’re ready to live with our taster sessions, we will reach out to folks signed up with the taster dates.  ​

If you’d like to have an informal chat with one of our practitioners about this new group email our young people’s team via:  [email protected] ​
A young child waves their arms in the air. Their are other young people behind them and they are in a large community hall.

What our members say:

“Mortal Fools is the greatest and most welcoming theatre group anyone could be a part of.”- Youth Theatre member

“Mortal Fools has helped me build up my confidence and make new friends; I'm much happier now.” - Youth Theatre member

“I was a bit worried at first but then I just went in and had a really good time.”
- Youth Theatre member

"Mortal Fools has been an incredible support; it’s a real source of joy each week.”
​- Youth Theatre Parent ​
