ATYP - Australian Theatre for Young People

The Australian Theatre for Young People is the nation's flagship youth theatre company. It offers one of the world's largest theatre workshop programs for young people, creates outstanding productions, runs regional residencies across Australia and mounts groundbreaking national and international projects. Each year, over 6000 young people aged between three and 26 participate in programs designed and led by over 200 professional artists.

Formed in 1963, the company creates opportunities for young people from many kinds of backgrounds, from urban centres and sometimes isolated areas of Australia, to discover and explore their creativity and to develop a fuller awareness and appreciation of themselves, the performing arts and their society.
