M1 Peer Pleasure Youth Theatre Festival seeks to fill a gap in the current landscape by providing a platform for young people in Singapore who are between the ages 13-25 to stage productions at professional theatre venues under the guidance of professional theatre practitioners for audiences young and old.
These creative collaborations enable the youth to learn how to work with others, to better appreciate the complexities of the social issues that inform their plays and to express their unique perspectives to a wider audience through honing their craft in drama and theatre-making.
We aspire to develop this annual festival over the next few years into the flagship event for youth theatre in Singapore, with plans to commission original work by youth and involving young people from various arts-based and community-based organisations.
