Considering our own health and self-care, our worth, our expertise and our lived experience, we, a collective of LGBTOIA+ practitioners, have compiled this manifesto.

If Scotland’s youth theatre sector can work towards fulfilling our needs, not only will youth theatre become a safer and healthier place for us to be ourselves, but we will also be able to continue to create an environment for young LGBTQIA+ people to thrive and have the strength to challenge the world outside of our workshops.
