Reviews on Y Touring Theatre Company
More information
History
Y Touring was the first company to work in the arena of health, sex education and science ethics. Y Touring has continually explored its mission statement with work suitable for students, teachers and professionals alike. In 1995 Y Touring introduced the Theatre of Debate® concept. Each Theatre of Debate® project consists of a play created to engage the target audience in an informed debate about a specific subject. The play is followed by a live debate between the actors in character and the audience. The development of each Theatre of Debate® project begins with a workshop bringing playwrights, experts and members of the target audience together to creatively explore the chosen subject.
