Are you a budding performer, writer or director? Or an aspiring dancer, vocalist, poet or rapper? Are you interested in making it happen backstage and finding out how theatre really works? Then look no further.

The Lyric runs one of the largest Creative Learning programmes in the UK, with a variety of activities for young people.   

If you’re 11-19 and live in West London, there are a range of projects as part of the Lyric West programme where you learn practical skills, perform on stage, make new friends and even get a qualification.

We also run an extensive programme of workshops, residencies and demonstrations alongside our work on stage as part of Lyric Interactive; for school, college and university students across London and beyond.
