The Young Critics are back! One of Youth Theatre Ireland’s most popular and innovative programmes, the Young Critics recruits a panel of young people from youth theatres across the country to experience a selection of hand-picked productions at this year’s festival.
Guided on their journey of critical discovery by expert facilitators, they learn how and why theatre is made, see incredible shows and voice their opinions. Over the course of the festival, the Young Critics watch a selection of productions and present their critical responses at this panel.
Chaired by Dr. Karen Fricker, The Young Critics Panel is always lively as the young people share their views with humour, passion, and eloquence. Expect strong opinions and spirited discussion at this yearly review.
