Exchange is our commitment to sharing, working with and learning from others - to create opportunities for connection between artists, organisations and young people.
We do this by:
Sharing how to we work through TRAINING COURSES.
Partnering with other youth arts organisations through CREATIVE EXCHANGES.
Publishing BLUEPRINTS of our plays and process.
Bringing the SECTOR together to connect and learn.
New Training Courses.
Our training courses are a practical, fun and engaging introduction to how we work.
They’ve been created in discussion with youth theatre makers and are for anyone interested in meaningfully collaborating with young people.

Blueprints
“A profound experience for my students … the most thought-provoking and moving play they’d ever experienced.”
We share our work through Blueprints - open-source devising guides and script templates - so that other groups of young people can make their own versions of our plays and projects.
Brainstorm.
Inside every adolescent brain, 86 billion neurons connect and collide to produce the most frustrating, chaotic and exhilarating changes that will ever happen to us.
Brainstorm is a unique theatrical investigation into how teenagers' brains work, and why they're designed by evolution to be the way they are.
The Coronavirus Time Capsule.
The Coronavirus Time Capsule captured a unique moment in history - the arrival of Covid-19 and the subsequent lockdowns.
Across the world, more than 3,000 teenagers used weekly exercises in our unique blueprint, instruction videos and other resources to help them explore life in lockdown.
When This Is Over
A group of teenagers, their lives shaped by billions of seemingly random events going back to before they were born, come together to share stories about their past, their present, and what might lie ahead.
A uniquely personal, theatrical celebration of hope, possibility and imagination.
Blueprint Library.
An online hub of resources for anyone running a youth theatre.
