Established in 2001 in St. Ives, Cambridgeshire, SIYT makes a positive difference to the lives of up 60 students aged 11 - 18 in secondary education in the Huntingdon area by providing the opportunity to develop performance skills and to gain experience of all aspects of stage craft. Our aim is to provide young people who are currently in secondary education with opportunities to develop their performance skills through a variety of communication methods. Through working in all areas of stage craft - including the support of performances through stage-management, technical support, marketing, costumes and make-up - young people are encouraged to develop the self-confidence and personal qualities that will sustain them through life. Youth Theatre helps you be you, so we can be SIYT.

Back to the 80's tells the story of the senior class of William Ocean High School, as remembered through the eyes of now thirty-something Corey Palmer. Seventeen-year-old Corey is madly in love with his next-door neighbor, Tiffany Houston, one of the coolest girls in the school, but she is too busy mooning over Michael Feldman, the hottest guy around. Michael and his friends are athletic and good looking — the kind of guys that Corey and his two best friends dream of being. Throw in some great nostalgic tunes, exciting dances, a couple of lightsabers, and some legwarmers, and you’ve got a great night of 80’s fun for all the family!"
