After the sell-out success of last year’s Bush Young Company which resulted in an Off West End Award nomination, the new cohort take to the main stage of the Bush Theatre this August to premiere two new productions, COMMUNION by the 18 -25 Company runs from 6-10 August (press night 8 August) and the 14-17 Company present ‘The End’ on 23 & 24 August.

Founded during the disruption of the pandemic, the Bush Young Companies have become central to everything the theatre does, reflecting its commitment to local life and developing the next generation of artists.

Lynette Linton, Artistic Director of Bush Theatre said, ‘Our Young Companies are at the centre of everything we do at the Bush.  In a time of dwindling access to the arts for young people, the pipeline feeding our industry is being eroded.  It is vital that we provide pathways and experiences from early years to early careers and our Young Companies are already playing a vital role in keeping the ecology alive.

       

We constantly talk of our world class industry.  For it to thrive we need to develop the next generation of artists, theatre makers, storytellers and audiences. You can’t be what you can’t see’

Katie Greenall, the Bush’s Young Company Director and Director of COMMUNION said,  “The Bush Young Company is not just the fertile ground to develop new artists, but directly feeds into the wider ecosystem of our building. We can see this through the programming of two recent Young Company members in our new season, and in continued paid writing development opportunities through our Bloom Bursary for alumni.

Review: Miss Myrtle’s Garden at Bush Theatre

So often we say that our building exists to platform the artists of tomorrow, but our Young Company is an example of that mission coming to fruition. I am so excited to present this new generation of these artists to the world, to build on the legacy of what has come before, and continue to make top-quality, urgent and thought-provoking work for our main stage.”

COMMUNION runs 6 – 10 August 2024 and The End 23 & 24 August 2024.
