Young Actors Company

​

RSS is very proud of its vibrant and exciting Young Actors' Company which meets every Saturday afternoon (4-6pm) for c. 12-week courses during the academic terms leading to a major production in February each year in our theatre.

 

The first session of the new term is on Saturday 13 September 2025.

 

The RSS YAC has received nominations and awards at the annual Arts Richmond Swan Awards for its productions and has taken part in the National Theatre’s Connections Festival.

 

The age group for the RSS YAC is currently Year 7 to end of Year 13. The RSS YAC is taught and led by a professional drama teacher. Fees are kept low in accordance with our charity status with the current fee being £10 for each two- hour session and consideration can be given to a waiver of fees in certain circumstances.  Any new member can come for a free trial session. There is no audition process for joining the RSS YAC which is an inclusive organisation with places for two children with special needs. The only restriction is that membership of the RSS YAC is limited to a maximum of 24 young students each year.

 

All members of the RSS YAC are required to become Junior Members of the RSS which (amongst other benefits) entitles them to audition and take part in other RSS productions.
