Spark Youth Theatre - Mission

Spark Youth Theatre reflects the political, social and cultural issues that are competing for the attention of young people in the Inner West and beyond. We do this because there is no better way to examine the decisions we make today, then through the eyes of those who have to live with them tomorrow.

The aesthetic of our work shifts depending on what best represents our content. Our work has experimented with verbatim theatre, site-specific spectacle, live intergenerational dubbing and conventional text-based theatre. We believe theatre takes infinite forms, that the relationship to our audience is always key, and that we must understand the changing zeitgeist in which theatre operates in order to remain relevant. No matter what form we take, we strive for a refinement beyond our years, hopefully hinting at what the future may hold.

We wish for our theatre to burn brightly, for as long as it can and to fade into memory when new sparks set our minds alight.
