Stage2 Youth Theatre

Stage2 Youth Theatre Stage2 is Birmingham's busiest youth theatre offering 7-21year olds the opportunity to be in productions, workshops and work experience programmes.

Stage2 is Birmingham’s biggest and busiest youth theatre with around 200 young members from across the West Midlands. Stage2 has been successfully running for 25 years, giving thousands of members countless opportunities in productions and workshops, as well as offering a unique range of work experience opportunities in Technical and Backstage, Marketing, Fundraising, Mentoring and Leadership. Any

one who joins can be in a production that term without audition! Stage2 exists to provide a safe, secure, professional and positive environment for children to learn and develop specific skills in theatre and the arts, and transferrable skills applicable to any social or work situation. Stage2 is totally open access and welcomes anyone aged 7-21 regardless of their background, experience or financial circumstances. To ensure this, we have a Subsidy fund in place for anyone who is in financial difficulty, which pays for any part of Stage2 that costs money, through part or full bursary. We also operate an MBF accredited Peer Mentoring Scheme (detailed below), used by all our members. We promote active integration and over a third our members have a specific learning difficulty, need or challenge. In our 25 years we have produced over 100 main house shows with as many as 176 members on stage at one time. Since joining, we have been hugely successful in our local area in the Birmingham Festival of Acting and Musical Entertainment and have excelled in all categories, and were voted Best Cultural Thing in Birmingham in the Invisible City Awards 2010.

We had our BFame awards presented to us in Production Week, Jekyll & Hyde won Best Ensemble, and Tabaarak received a Special Commendation for his performance in Ovid - we couldn’t be prouder of everyone involved! 👏

Ovid was also nominated for Outstanding Technical Work, and we were thrilled to receive a generous £1,000 donation from ASDA for our Mentor Scheme. 💙

Thank you so much for coming to see A Monster Calls and for presenting us with our £1,000, it will go towards ensuring more young people make meaningful memories like this one! 💚

I was delighted to attend an incredible performance by Stage2 Youth Theatre – and took the opportunity to present them with a £1,000 grant from the Asda Foundation’s Young Futures Fund, supporting them in continuing their amazing work and nurturing future talent.

Their performance of A Monster Calls was truly moving, beautifully capturing heartfelt emotion — a powerful reminder of how the arts can tell important stories with such impact. The energy was remarkable and it was clear how much hard work had gone into creating such a memorable performance.

Congratulations to everyone involved — I can’t wait to see what they do next!

– Sally, Asda community champion
