A very warm welcome to the start of
Faust's 10th Anniversary Season!

Faust was formed in 1999 to bring the wonderful world of theatre and performing arts to the young people of Hong Kong. We started with just 3 workshops on a Saturday at Island School and now, as we launch our tenth season, we have 37 groups!

Each week members meet to learn about drama and the theatre. Over the last 10 years our workshops have been providing a fun-filled learning environment which develops self-confidence and teamwork and builds an environment of respect and learning.

In addition, over the last ten years, we have created, directed and produced a variety of shows with adult and child casts from Hong Kong and around the world. Whether it is Roald Dahl or Dickens we have turned our hands to it!

To celebrate our tenth year we have an exciting array of things planned. In addition to the Faust Festival 2009 we have two productions. The first, A Little Princess runs from the 4th to the 13th of December 2008. The second, Lord of the Flies, runs 26th March to 5th April 2009.

In addition to performances our tenth year sees the return of the successful Play in a Day and Specialised Workshops as well as our regular FIYT workshops. For those preferring to write rather than perform we also have our successful Creative Writing Programme.

We are also formalising our charity work through Faust's Commitment to the Community, and we aim to help more young people in Hong Kong and around the region.

We have an exciting year ahead and I am looking forward to meeting you and your children.
