Second
Wave exists to develop
youth-centred theatre and collaborative work created
by young artists. We offer regular
programmes of performing arts workshops, events, productions,
arts training and employment opportunities for young
people aged 13-25 years.
We are a registered charity established
in 1982, supported by regular funding from Arts
Council England.
Recent graduates
include Shingai Shoniwa and Dan
Smith, from the chart-topping
band The Noisettes. Now patrons
of Second Wave, they support the company’s
campaign to raise awareness of safety issues for
young people.
The Noisettes'
single, 'Don't Upset The Rhythm' reached No 2 in the
charts this year. Check out their album, 'Wild Young
Hearts'. www.thenoisettes. com

"In youth arts you are actively involved
in making something as a young artist – not simply learning
about the arts. This means seizing opportunities, taking risks and
inspiring change." SHINGAI SHONIWA
