Falkirk Children's and Youth Theatre (FCYT)
Falkirk Children's and Youth Theatre offers children and young adults from the Falkirk area the opportunity to learn and develop within many aspects of the performing arts, through workshops and performance.
In the last year, FCT has performed at Big in Falkirk, the Tryst Festival and at FTH. They have participated in workshops with Glasgow Rep Company and Scottish Dance Theatre and were part of the 'Shakespeare for Schools' nationwide event in February 2007.
All members must live in the Falkirk district and be aged 7–25. Places are allocated on a first come, first served basis with a waiting list for places.
