We are a youth theatre community in Cheddar that meet every week on a Wednesday, during term time at the Cheddar Catholic Church Community Hall, Our Lady Queen of Apostles, The Presbytery, Tweentown, Cheddar, BS27 3HU.
When signing up, we ask that our members commit to attend every Wednesday throughout the term.
A request for more theatre and activities for young people was a theme in the recent round of Axbridge, Cheddar, and Polden consultations. So Seed is bringing youth theatre to the Cheddar Valley.
The groups provide safe spaces for young people to create, explore and find their voice through Theatre and the Arts. Using professional artists and experienced facilitators they take theatre into the community, challenging traditional notions of ‘theatre’ as an inaccessible or elitist.
David is a professional actor who has performed in all four corners of the UK, Norway and Italy. He has worked for the BBC Radio Drama Company.
He also works as a teacher, a storyteller (using his alter ego The Professor), a playwright with his company, Tor Theatre, co-founded with Angela Laverock.
Seed has commissioned Somerset Youth Theatre CIC – a collective of professional Theatre makers and Artists who work with young people across the county to support their original, devised work.
