Join the Mercury Young Company!

• Scene work
• Improvisation skills
• Acting techniques
Mercury Young Company Performers will also have access to:
• The Mercury’s dedicated learning space
• Regular performance opportunities including an end of year performance
• Open rehearsals for Mercury Productions
• Free tickets for open dress rehearsals or preview performances for Mercury Productions
• Mercury Connects – the theatre’s social network, which provides opportunities in the arts, information about events, tickets and work in the East of England.
• Mentoring from theatre staff and exclusive backstage access
Weekly sessions from Tue 12 Sep, 6.30-8.30pm. (Please note: no session on 24 October)
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.

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 in April and September.
MYC T-Shirts
MYC T-shirts can be ordered for £15, either online or via the Box Office.

Your young people are expected to wear their T-shirt at all sessions.
