Theatre, particularly theatre for youth, fires the imagination; it helps our youth develop the skills and the creativity necessary to face the world, to understand it and perhaps to change it too.
They might learn more about history, how to handle conflict, or find their passion for the arts. That is why the Persephone Theatre Youth Tour exists, to bring the theatre to you!

Youth Tour shows examine issues that are relevant to young people and provide unique opportunities for thought and discussion. We use the power of theatre to stimulate community, to encourage growth and to edify our young people in a powerful and uniting experience. Through our shows we foster a lifelong appreciation for the arts and their ability to inspire, educate and entertain!
