The Youth Company at SOPA has just returned from Scotland where they participated in the NFYT Festival wth an original devised piece – WHAT A PIECE OF WORK IS MAN. 22 members aged 12 to 17, participated in various workshops which were held over the three days. These included workshops in ‘Spoken Word,’ ‘Physical Theatre, ‘Puppetry,’and ‘Comedy Improvisation.’ The Performance was held at the Gaiety Theatre on Saturday evening to a packed theatre. Following a standing ovation from the members of the audience, the group participated in a Q & A where they explained the process and the thoughts behind the piece.
