Wharfingers Youth Theatre was founded in 2002 and is part of Louth Playgoers Society. Our aim is to give young people with a love of the theatre the opportunity to meet new friends, learn new skills and, above all, to have fun! Everyone between the ages of 11 and 18 is welcome and there are no auditions or any special entry requirements, other than enthusiasm and commitment.

Wharfingers have their very own website:

Involvement in Children’s Theatre is fun and a great way to spend Saturday mornings. (during school term time)
At this level we have an integrated approach to the performing arts (drama, dance and music) and aim to nurture in children an interest and love of theatre. They develop confidence and the ability to focus, relax and feel comfortable in front of an audience, where the foundations are laid for learning drama skills and technique in future years.

Paintbox Young People's Theatre serves two age groups:
Age 5 – 8 running from 9.00am to 11.30 am
Age 8 – 11+ running from 11.45am to 2.15pm

We aim to have each group working towards a production at all times with a nativity and pantomime at Christmas and an end of year summer variety show. Our ethos centres on giving all children a chance, in an environment inclusive of all abilities.
