After a hectic 18 months, the Centre Stage +10 research project finally
reached its conclusion on May 20th, with the launch of the Centre Stage +10
report. A huge thanks to all the youth theatre leaders, members and
stakeholders who gave their time, thoughts and energy to the project.

A copy of the report has been sent out to all youth theatres and is also
available to download from the Research section.

It is a detailed study of current youth theatre activity and focuses on all
aspects of the sector including structures, funding and practice. It also
includes an examination of the benefits of youth theatre for participants
and a number of key recommendations for the future development of the
sector.

We hope you find the report useful and hope it will continue to stimulate
discussion on all aspects of youth theatre practice. Do get in touch if
there are any issues or findings that you would like to discuss further.

Or maybe Centre Stage +10 has whetted your appetite for youth theatre
research! NAYD would love to hear from anyone interested in carrying out
research or evaluation within their own youth theatre.

Many thanks again!
