LYT is based at 1A Tower Street in Covent Garden. Nearest tube stations are Covent Garden, Leicester Square and Tottenham Court Road.

The best London bus routes to get to us are the 14, 19, 24, 38 and 176. We’re also walking distance from Charing Cross if you coming to us via train.

The Summer Show is performed at The Cockpit, and rehearses in Zone 1-2.

We rehearse every Saturday from 11:30am to 3:30pm. The Summer Intensive rehearses Monday - Friday in summer holidays.

Workshops are designed to work around the busy exam season. Annual dates for the year are supplied at the beginning of each Season. The approximate schedule is:

Show 1: January - April

Workshops: May - July

Show 2: July - August (4 weeks, Monday - Friday)

Show 3: September - December

60% of our places are free of charge. The other 40% are on a tiered pricing scheme based on what’s most affordable for each member according to their circumstances. You supply this information during the application process. There’s no need for a separate bursary application.

The low tier is £32 per month, the middle is £58 per month and the high tier is £85 per month. Payment is taken monthly by standing order only.

There are no other hidden costs for productions or extra rehearsal time. We’re working to eventually become a 100% free service.

LYT works with 14 - 22 year olds. Exceptions can be made on a case by case basis. If you are outside of this age range, please write to hello@londonyouththeatre.org.uk.

No! We encourage anyone and everyone to apply to us. No previous experience is necessary, we just ask for your commitment.

We run LYT Backstage during our Summer Intensive in July/August. Keep an eye on our website and socials for updates.
