It's Our Theatre: Thurrock kicked off in September 2009.  Funded by Thurrock Council and the Thurrock Thamesgateway Development Corporation, this Inspire Marked project is already making a splash. 

In the video above one of our artists Yami, shares her thoughts on the project with Your Thurrock.

Cllr Sue MacPherson, Thurrock Council’s portfolio holder for 14-19 & integrated youth services, said: “This is a great way to engage young people in Thurrock and to discover untapped talent.

“What’s good about the project is that the crew working with the young people will be with them at every stage of the project, teaching and guiding them until they are able to put on their own shows.
