Based on democratic principles of education, in which young people are afforded value, respect, and latitude, and in which young people are fully welcomed to be themselves, TES Theatre Company takes emerging artists seriously. We are an offspring of TES (Transforming Education Society), and we continue to support young people to define and pursue their own voice, inspiration, and creative passion.
