SummerStock

 

Applications now closed for 2026

Following on from the success of 2024s 'We Are Such Things', a reimagining of William Shakespeare's the Tempest and the irreverent 2025 production of  'A Midsummer Night's Dream' the stage@leeds Young Company will return this August to perform their own version of 'Romeo and Juliet'.

The stage@leeds SummerStock is open to anyone from 9-17yrs, but due to the length of rehearsals and the intensity of the project we would like to talk to the parents/guardians of any participant under 11yrs.

  • You don't need any prior experience to be part of the project, just enthusiasm and commitment (you need to attend all rehearsals).
  • Participation is £100 for the full 11 days of the project
  • There will be an initial meeting prior to rehearsals where will meet all prospective participants and go over the project in more detail
  • The project will culminate with a performance at stage@leeds on Saturday Aug 08 at 7.30pm

Fees

The cost of participation in Summer Stock 2026 is £100. We try to keep the cost of participation to a minimum to allow as many people as possible to be part of the project.

Sustainability

We are committed to sustainable practice. We try to create all of our shows using exisiting resources and props.
