MYC 15-17s Sept ’25 Term
Join the Mercury Young Company!
The Mercury’s main drama company you know and love has expanded to offer more opportunities to the amazing young people we welcome through our doors each week.
MYC Performers will receive weekly training from our Mercury teaching artists, which will develop:
• Voice
• Movement
• Text analysis
• Creating a character
• Scene work
• Improvisation skills
• Acting techniques
Weekly sessions from Wed 10 Sep, 7.30-9.30pm (Please note: no session on Wed 29 Oct).
Please note
The Mercury Young Company will start working on a main stage production from the September term up until the end of March which will mean committing for both terms and to this performance project. If you are a new member and are looking to join but would like more information before committing, please email [email protected] to get more information from the Creative Engagement team.
MYC Bursary
We want as many young people as possible to have access to our creative activities and we do not want someone’s financial situation to be a barrier to taking part. The MYC Bursary exists to enable participants to take part in activity provided by Mercury Theatre. Please note bursary places are at full capacity at the moment so unable to offer any more and we have a long waiting list. Feel free to register incase a space becomes available.
Reserve a place for the year
You can now reserve a place on MYC for the whole year. To reserve a place for the whole year contact our box office team at [email protected]. Payment is due 2 weeks before the start of each term.
MYC T-Shirts
MYC T-shirts can be ordered for £15, either online or via the Box Office.
If your T-shirt gets lost or damaged, you will need to order a new one.
Your young people are expected to wear their T-shirt at all sessions.
Accessibility
All of our activities are accessible and inclusive and you are able to inform us of any additional requirements you have when booking or by becoming a member of our Access for All scheme here. We will also have youth assistants on hand to support our MYC groups up to 18 years.
