As children get older, their interests and confidence can change. The things they loved when they were younger might not always feel like enough of a challenge anymore.

That’s where Jigsaw Arts Youth Theatre comes in.

Based at Harris Academy Morden, our Youth Theatre is designed for young people aged 14-18, giving students the opportunity to stretch themselves, take on new challenges and continue developing their performing arts skills in a supportive environment.

And, of course, there’s still plenty of the brilliant variety that makes Jigsaw Jigsaw!

More than just a theatre class

At Jigsaw, we believe performing arts should be about more than putting on a show.

For teenagers, it’s a chance to develop confidence, communication, creativity and teamwork while being part of a group of like-minded young people.

Our Youth Theatre gives students a space where they can challenge themselves while still feeling supported.

Whether they’ve been with Jigsaw for years or are discovering us for the first time, everyone is welcomed into a community where they can learn, create and grow together.

New challenges for growing performers

The teenage years are a brilliant time to push yourself a little further.

At Youth Theatre, students can continue developing their skills while taking on challenges that help them discover what they’re capable of.

It’s not about expecting every young person to be the loudest, most confident person in the room. It’s about creating the right environment for each student to make progress in their own way.

Sometimes confidence comes from stepping into a new character.

Sometimes it’s working as part of an ensemble.

Sometimes it’s simply having the courage to try something you’ve never done before.

Those small moments can make a huge difference.

A place to belong

One of the things we value most at Jigsaw is creating a place to belong.

For teenagers, having a community where they can be themselves, make friends and share their creativity can be incredibly important.

Youth Theatre brings together young people who enjoy performing arts and want to develop their skills, while giving them the encouragement and structure they need to keep growing.

It’s a place to have fun, meet people and take on new challenges together.
