Thirty-five young actors from award-winning youth theatre programme Young Everyman Playhouse (YEP) will make their debut on the Playhouse main stage from 27th February to 2nd March, with a new devised piece – Crowd.

Following on from previous productions of The City and the Value of Things (2018) The Establishment (2017) and The Environmentalists (2016), Crowd will tackle issues of everyday society and specifically the mentality of “the crowd”, in a piece devised entirely by the young theatre-makers.

YEP use their own personal experiences and feelings to transport very real issues of today into a fictitious autocracy, powerfully examining the rise of populist and autocratic leaders across the globe.
