Operating for over thirty-five years The Theatre Royal Bath Theatre School (TRBTS) is our resident youth theatre housed in The Egg.

A place where young people aged 5 - 25 are empowered to express themselves, develop meaningful connections and have fun exploring theatre. TRBTS offers specialised training and professional insight into the world of theatre, both on stage and off. From weekly groups to large-scale productions and site-specific projects - TRBTS explores innovation and creative ambition.

We promote an ethos of kindness, bravery and authenticity. The Theatre School nurtures and encourages young people to creatively play and explore their own unique voices, being both a community and family.

The Year at a Glance:

Autumn term: Our Autumn term is a skills-based term leading to a large TRBTS wide showcase on the TRB mainstage.

Spring term: In the spring we produce our theatre school festival. With three shows performed by different age groups and led by professional directors and designers. There’s a chance for everyone to get involved from performance to writing and from prop making to operating the lights.

Summer term: In the summer we invite our young people to take over The Egg Building in a full day of performances, workshops, exhibitions and open mic events, all in response to a single theme and led by the participants.

Summer schools: Over the summer holidays we run several summer schools for all age groups inviting participants to create and perform their own play on the Egg Stage in just one week.
