Citizenship – Inspire Acting

Embark on a thought-provoking journey with our talented First Year BTEC Level 3 Acting Theatre students as they bring to life Mark Ravenhill’s compelling play, “Citizenship.” Join us on April 25th in our Studio 1 Theatre for an evening of captivating storytelling and powerful performances that will leave a lasting impression.
Written by acclaimed playwright Mark Ravenhill in 2015, “Citizenship” explores themes of identity, sexuality, and the complexities of adolescence with raw honesty and biting wit. Set in a contemporary British high school, the play follows the journey of a young gay teenager named Tom as he navigates the challenges of coming out while grappling with societal expectations and peer pressure.

Through a series of poignant and often humorous scenes, “Citizenship” delves into the inner struggles and external conflicts faced by Tom and his classmates, shedding light on the universal quest for acceptance and belonging. As the characters confront their fears and desires, the audience is invited to reflect on their own experiences and prejudices, sparking important conversations about tolerance, empathy, and the true meaning of citizenship in today’s world.

Our First Year BTEC Level 3 Acting Theatre students have immersed themselves in the rich tapestry of Ravenhill’s script, bringing depth and authenticity to each character’s journey. From heartfelt monologues to dynamic ensemble scenes, their performances promise to captivate and resonate with audiences of all backgrounds.

Join us for an unforgettable evening of theatre as we celebrate the talent and dedication of our budding young actors. Whether you’re a seasoned theatregoer or new to the world of live performance, “Citizenship” offers a compelling and thought-provoking experience that will linger in your mind long after the final curtain falls.
