Crete Street Studio

Welcome to Crete Street Studio – BTG’s exciting Youth Theatre Program, formally known as JETS.

We are looking forward to the benefits this programme has for our students, whether it be assisting them at school, developing skills for their future careers, or just exploring their hobbies and passions. We welcome you to the Crete Street family whether you are a returning student, or a fresh face.

Crete Street Studio classes are designed by the tutors themselves, with consultation from the BTG Committee and educational experts.
