Theatre, drama, and creative activities for young people aged 7-19 in Northumberland, the North East of England, and beyond.
An overview of our work and what’s on offer for anyone connected to children and young people. Full of digital resources – things you can watch, experience, have a go at, download, and enjoy from Mortal fools Youth Theatre.
Our work at Mortal Fools is about people – we enable young people through drama and our creative projects, to grow and evolve into a version of themselves that they want to be. Our work is an early intervention that provides a safe space to be themselves, and work towards good mental health. We believe engaging in creativity through Youth Theatre is a tremendous vehicle for helping young people to build their confidence and skills.

"Mortal Fools Youth Theatre has become such an important part of my daughter’s life. She has been struggling for a while with anxiety and feeling like she didn’t fit in. At youth theatre, the support she has received - the freedom to express herself and use her creative side - has helped her to overcome a number of life challenges and feel safe to be whoever she wants to be. The opportunities Mortal Fools enable children to experience are fantastic and open up a new world of possibility."

"Being involved has done wonders for their confidence and they bubble with enthusiasm. They’ve made new friends, and through the workshops gained a better understanding of their identity and other people. One of the best things they’ve shared is that the Mortal Fools’ staff team treat them like people and not just teenagers."
