'It's a deep privilege to work with @BlackfriarsSett@Certitude@ThamesReach. Neighbourhood Theatre is so important to us because at its heart it has the power to unlock creative potential in all kinds of people in our boroughs' YV Exec Director Despina Tsatsas on #TwentyTwenty
The Black British Theatre Award nominations were announced today (@theBBTAs). The ceremony will take place at the Young Vic next month and will be broadcast for free on @SkyArts in late October. 🤩
Today marks 50 years since we first opened our doors & what a better way to celebrate this milestone than by sharing with you our brand-new year-long programme of work entitled #WeAreTheNewTide

First up, our 50th Birthday Projections 📽
Starting tonight, each evening the front of our building will become a giant canvas, illuminated by a video projection by @duncanjmclean, celebrating the people & productions who have contributed to our history over the last 5 decades.
The #YV50 Projection Project is a homage to the entire community who make up the DNA of the Young Vic and it will run Monday to Saturdays, from 7.30pm until 10.30pm
