Calling new Young Critics

Standard

Do you fancy joining the Exeter Northcott Young Critics?  Well now is your chance because we are recruiting the next gang of enthusiastic performance lovers. Apply today and get free theatre tickets, meet other theatre enthusiasts, expand your experiences and learn to write about it all.  We meet a few times a term and invite special industry mentors to help you with your writing.   

“For me, as well as being given the opportunity to frequent the theatre, I have loved working with the other critics and being able to dicuss what we all love – I really enjoyed our joint article for the Moustrap.” Phoebe Graham, Young Critic 2013

“The best part of YCs has been the opportunity to see amazing shows that I may not have been able to afford or may not have made the effort to go see otherwise (shameful admission from a drama student and theatre lover…) while simultaneously developing my writing and analytical skills.  I feel that after just one year in the programme my appreciation for live performance has expanded greatly!” Carmen Paddock, Young Critic 2013

If you’re aged between 16-26 and interested in writing about performance apply by submitting a 250 word review of ANY show, gig, exhibition, film or television programme to marketing@exeternorthcott.co.uk by Friday 6th October 2014.

Ten of the most promising young critics will be selected to take part in the project.
