Company description

In 2004 the NCT reached over 3 million viewers during live performances and television appearances. The NCT is rooted in the belief that earlier experiences with the arts will have profoundly positive effects on the development of children and ultimately, their participation in the life of their communities.
The NCT's reputation is built on a history of staging a variety of classic children's literature, as well as teaching vital interactive life-skills through theatre-in-education programmes and theatre workshops.
The NCT has formed valuable partnerships with schools, various homes, and welfare organisations.
