Young Quines

Your space to use your voice, tell your stories and be creative together…

Our new Young Quines theatre and drama groups are for young women and non-binary people aged 14 – 21 across Fife.

The fortnightly sessions will be led by professional theatre-makers. Throughout the year there will also be theatre trips, workshops from visiting artists and opportunities to share your creative work.

Young Quines groups are completely free to attend. Support can be provided towards travel costs.

Groups running in Anstruther, Dunfermline, Levenmouth and Lochgelly. Starting autumn 2021. Find out more below.

Meet Rachel-Jane Morrison

Rachel-Jane is a theatre-maker, director and community arts practitioner from Levenmouth in Fife.

She came up with the idea for Young Quines and asked us to create the project with her. We’re excited to be working with her and other amazing theatre-makers to run these theatre and drama groups.

Watch this video to see her explain more about Young Quines and what to expect when you join.

Young Quines is Stellar Quines project within the national programme called Culture Collective, coordinated by Creative Scotland. As part of their Covid response, the Scottish Government have made a £6M investment into the Culture Collective programme, to place creative practitioners in communities in 26 projects around Scotland.

Large numbers of creative freelancers have lost their income because of the Covid pandemic and people in communities are also experiencing real difficulties. The basic principle of Culture Collective is simple – to pay creatives to work with communities.
