Phoenix Youth Theatre

Confidence on stage. Skills for life.

Phoenix Youth Theatre is Aberdeen’s friendly drama and dance school for ages 6-18. Weekly classes in acting, singing and movement build confidence, discipline and teamwork - and each year culminates in at least one major production on a professional stage, putting new skills into practice.

The emphasis during each class is fun, which, along with hard work, produces the quality productions Phoenix is known for.

We do not aim to create superstars, but to induce a love and appreciation of the theatre and to develop skills which will aid children throughout life, far beyond the stage.

Phoenix Youth Theatre will encourage the quiet child to find their voice and the lively child to cultivate composure, all while having a thoroughly enjoyable time and creating friendships to last a lifetime.
