Local theatregoers have donated over £5000 to give 23 young people across South Yorkshire the opportunity to attend Sheffield Theatres’ Summer School completely free of charge.

The funded places also include support for food and travel costs.
Sheffield Theatres’ Summer School runs from Monday 31 July – Sat 12 August (excluding Sat 5 & Sun 6 August) and have three different age groups: ages 9 -12, 13 -15, and 16 -25, as well as a Technical Summer School for young people aged 16+ who are interested in learning about Stage Management, Lighting and Sound.
