The Riverside Theatre Company (R.T.C.) is a registered charity dedicated to furthering opportunities for young people in the Performing Arts. We are based in St. Neots, Cambridgeshire, and operate weekly workshops; where we provide drama, singing and dance training from professional tutors/directors who work in the business.

Every year we stage two musicals and a Christmas production, plus we run specialist workshops e.g. dance, physical theatre, stage combat and film production!

We also run the Riverside Dance Academy and Fracture, which is choreographed by Sara Johnson and Lorna O'Connell, the Riverside Singers which is led by Ian Tipping and Jo Ryan and the Riverside Acting Workshop which is led by myself.

Our ethos is to give every young person interested in performing arts, from those who want to have a go, to those who will go on to join the profession, an opportunity. Unlike many commercial groups, membership of R.T.C. is inclusive (no auditions for entry, only energy and enthusiasm!). Riverside theatre company is committed to offering quality performing arts experience to every young person. We raise funds to offer financial assistance to young people who whose families are unable to fund the fees for sessions. If you would like to apply for assistance, please apply in confidence to the trustees at Riverside.
