Australian Theatre for Young People (ATYP) is a not-for-profit national youth theatre company located in Woolloomooloo, New South Wales, Australia. It was founded in 1963 by Eleanor Witcombe.[1]

History

[edit]

The first committee was formed in 1963 and consisted of Alastair Duncan as chairman, Diana Sharpe as secretary,[2] Nigel Lovell as treasurer, as well as Ellis Irving, Owen Weingott and Wendy Blacklock.[3]

ATYP's first production was the comedy She Stoops to Conquer - Goldsmith Examined by Oliver Goldsmith, adapted and directed by Owen Weingott.[4]

Since 1997, ATYP was housed at The Wharf, Pier 4/5, but due to construction that started in July 2018, ATYP has temporarily relocated its office to Woolloomooloo.
