Showcasing Grand Young Company actors, NT Connections – Fishville celebrates young talent at Blackpool Grand Theatre.
Tues 14 Apr at 6.30pm
NT Connections – Macbeth Macbeth Macbeth Macbeth Macbeth / RIDE or DIE
Connections is the National Theatre’s annual, nationwide youth theatre festival, celebrating young talent from across the UK. Each year, The National Theatre commission new plays for young people to perform, pairing some of the UK’s most exciting writers with the theatre-makers of tomorrow.
Blackpool Grand Theatre is once again, proud to be hosting the National Theatre Connections Festival in its 31st year, with four local Young Theatre groups taking part, including our very own Grand Young Company young actors.
The story starts when a young man named Jared takes to the sea in swimming gear but never starts swimming… His death, which follows on from the unexpected sale of his parents’ house, throws the community into chaos. When the daughter of the man who bought Jared’s house arrives in Saltwell and finds a severed foot washed up at her feet, she and the daughter of the ‘second homers’ decide to investigate what drove Jared into the sea. They uncover a local myth about an underwater community – did Jared believe the myth? Then, ‘Jared’ starts posting messages, asking his friends to join him. With the new girl’s father spending more and more time in the sea, and the myth gaining traction, the young people must figure out what’s going on before anybody else is lost to a vengeful ocean…
