A Sharing of Positive Stories for Negative Times

A Sharing of Positive Stories for Negative Times

A group of young performers are on stage in a theatrical scene, wearing casual black outfits, except for one person in the center who stands out in a white t-shirt. The backdrop displays the words “Gameshow Edition.” The performers express various emotions through their body language and facial expressions, suggesting a dramatic or comedic performance. Several chairs are scattered across the stage, adding to the theatrical setup.

The Gaiety Youth Theatre presents a night of three plays, as part of Positive Stories for Negative Times: Season 4 from Wonder Fools in association with the Traverse Theatre.

This amazing project is carried out across the world with various groups working on the same scripts commissioned by theatre makers specific for young people. The Gaiety Youth Theatre will be showcasing three very different performances: “Careful What You Wish For” by Hannah Lowe, “We Ain’t Moving” by Travis Alabanza and an adaptation of “Hold Me Closer Bunny Baxter” by James Ley.
