Youth Theatre Island Kildare at the Riverbank!

Performance

Youth Theatre Island is a vibrant, all-island celebration of young voices and new theatre. Delivered in partnership by Youth Theatre Ireland and Theatre & Dance NI, this programme champions young people as artists and invites audiences to experience the work they create when their voices are trusted and amplified.

Across the event you’ll see a dynamic mix of brand-new short plays and newly devised pieces, brought to life by youth theatre ensembles from across the island. Come along for a feel-good theatre experience: fearless performances, fresh stories, and the unmistakable buzz of a room full of supporters cheering on the next generation.

Duration: 90 mins

Funded by Creative Ireland’s Shared Island Initiative as part of Cruinniú na nÓg.

This event is part of Riverbank’s programme for Cruinniú na nÓg 2026.
