In Dialogue...
Establishing your theatre practice in the industry is an increasingly demanding challenge due to restrictions posed by funding, opportunity, access and space. The In Dialogue... series helps create that space, offering current and past participants of Scottish Youth Theatre projects a moment to gather and evaluate the pinnacles, pitfalls and peripheries they’ve experienced when developing their creative practice. Encountering a new theme each episode, artists, designers, writers and performers come together to discuss where obstacles lie for them and, ultimately, how new and exciting work can be collaboratively forged.

Taya Sian is an actor and writer from Glasgow. She is passionate about showcasing working-class stories and her writing is heavily inspired by her experiences growing up as a young carer. She thinks it’s important to address topics we don’t usually see in the theatre. She hopes that being able to see her own story on stage will help others who had similar upbringings feel less alone.
