<h3>Siamsa T&iacute;re has announced a new youth theatre residency with a local drama school.</h3>
Starting on January 14, classes will run weekly in Siamsa T&iacute;re, led by drama professionals from the West End House School of Arts on New St.
Young people aged over 12 are invited to a free taster session on December 17 in Siamsa T&iacute;re from 12 &#8211; 2pm with Jessica Plunkett.
Places are limited, so it is recommended to book early for both the taster session and the Youth Theatre term.
&ldquo;It has been a priority for us to establish a Youth Theatre Club because it was Donie Courtney&rsquo;s ambition to see this happen in his home county. To have a residency at Siamsa T&iacute;re for a group of young people who want to come together and create their own work is simply magic. It&rsquo;s exactly what we&rsquo;re about at West End House and we&rsquo;re already looking forward to seeing what this beautiful space inspires,&rdquo; Creative Director at West End House, Jessica Courtney Leen, said.
The West End House School of Arts, which was founded by the late Donal Courtney (Jessica Courtney Leen&#8217;s uncle), and actor Michael Fassbender, has been successfully running acting classes with secondary school students, visiting international students and adults since September 2021.
