Making a difference through the arts.
atyp has been bridging the divide between young people and professional theatre practice since 1963. Australia’s oldest and largest youth theatre company, we are driven to create work that impacts the way young people engage with theatre nationally.
Australian Theatre for Young People specialises in integrating professional theatre practice with supportive youth theatre process. We love working with all levels of the arts industry, from the most celebrated national companies to the smallest youth theatres. Our work supports young people from their first theatre experience to their first professional production.
Our Vision is to forever raise the national expectation of what theatre with young people can achieve.
Australian Theatre for Young People is located at Sydney's most prestigious arts precinct, The Wharf, Pier 4/5 Hickson Rd Walsh Bay on Sydney Harbour. Nestled amongst the Sydney Theatre Company, Bangarra Dance Theatre and Sydney Dance Company, overlooking the bustling Sydney Harbour, atyp has two venues available that can place your event in the heart of this arts centre.
