We are a purpose built youth theatre set within beautiful woodland. We produce and programme pioneering work with, by and for children, young people and their families. Enriching the lives of individuals and our community.

Established 1973. Creatively inspiring children, young people and families to taker their next steps.

Our children both love attending their workshops and being a part of productions. My son calls BYT his “happy place” that makes his “heart feel warm”. Apparently “you feel like you can do anything when you are here”.

Parent/ Carer

Being part of this show made me feel happy and positive – I loved coming every week and having a smile on my face from beginning to end – not having to worry about school or homework for those 2 hours each week when I could just escape

BYT is family. BYT is home

Freelance Artist / Film maker

The world of theatre is so educational and constructive to someone’s character, so I know that every time my children are visiting Burnley Youth Theatre they will come back with something new they have learned either about drama or themselves.

BYT has shaped my whole career. The work I did in Burnley allowed me to take risks and grow in a safe environment. BYT is everything!
