As a result of positive feedback from young people attending Sheffield Theatres? production of Edward II, during which over 4,000 of the 23,000 audience members were aged 16?26, a ?young people only? performance is being programmed into the schedule for all Sheffield Theatres productions.
The schedule has begun with Simon Nye?s new translation of Don Juan, at the Crucible Theatre. Comments on the Crucible?s ?Graffiti Wall?, which provides a place for young people to give informal feedback on the performances they see, have been enthusiastic, such as ?I wouldn?t mind going to Hell if Don Juan?s going to be there" and "Oooh, I do like a bastard!"
