Young Performer is the only national performing arts magazine for young people. Inspired by Stagecoach and published by Ten Alps Creative, the magazine is designed to appeal to those young people for whom acting, singing and dancing is a passion. With six issues a year, the focus is to entertain, inform and educate through articles, interviews, news stories, quizzes and competitions.
"This magazine is absolutely wicked, it’s a real inspiration to any young performer out there, a really novel approach."
