Theatre Peckham

Theatre Peckham is an award-winning cultural venue for artistic excellence and social change. Through the power of theatre, we illuminate young voices, provide skills and opportunities, and platform excellent creatives who are locally focused with a national and international reach.

Welcome to our Young Peckham Academy for ages 16+.

We are a flagship cultural venue and a pioneering Learning Theatre, where inspirational artists meet aspirational young people. We are home to world class creative learning and performance, with, by and for young people, providing a talent pipeline into the creative industries.

Young Peckham is a pioneering strand of work Theatre Peckham is leading on with the goal of supporting young people ready to take their creativity to the next level but require additional support to do so. This scheme places emphasis on creating equitable spaces for younger artists who may be at a disadvantage due to societal barriers out of their control, as well as nurturing artists who may be older but are new to their practice – helping them find their way as they navigate new spaces.
