Contacts

Faust International Youth Theatre was formed in 1999 to bring the wonderful world of theatre and performing arts to the young people of Hong Kong. Faust arrived in Singapore in 2012.

Faust International Youth Theatre aims to provide a fun-filled learning environment where those involved not only learn, but also develop greater self-confidence and an enhanced ability to work with others. Members are encouraged to work with their peers, respect each other's work and learn from their experiences.

At Faust learning is just as important as performing. In fact commitment, rather than talent, is the key, and those registered should be keen on taking part. Faust provides youth theatre programmes directly to schools, typically as part of a school’s after-school activities schedule.

All the programmes are taught by experienced and qualified leaders who bring a wealth of personal experience and expertise to the group.

Faust International Youth Theatre (FIYT) provides challenging and creative workshops that engage students in the world of theatre and performing arts.

Faust International Youth Theatre introduces students to a world of theatre and creativity, helping them to develop performance skills, theatre knowledge, teamwork, individual expression and confidence. All groups are led by experienced and highly trained drama teachers, with emphasis throughout on providing high-quality workshops that the members enjoy.
