Welcome to Skipping Through Theatre, the podcast where we celebrate the magic, creativity, and stories behind the world of stage and screen!
Hosted by Maddie and Nathan, Skipping Through Theatre is a place for theatre lovers, performers, and creatives to share their stories and inspire the next generation of young people. Through conversations with performers, creatives, and industry professionals, we explore the journeys behind the shows, films, and projects we love, while discovering what it takes to bring stories to life.
Our aim is to inspire young people to be creative, follow their dreams, and discover the opportunities that the world of stage and screen can offer. We want to encourage the next generation of performers, writers, directors, and creatives by sharing real stories from people working in the industry.
Since launching, we’ve been proud to create a platform that celebrates young voices, encourages creativity, and brings listeners closer to the people who entertain and inspire audiences around the world.
We are an award-winning podcast, having won Young Creative at the 2026 YouthTV Aspire Awards — recognising our creativity, dedication, and contribution to the community.
We are also proudly partnered with YouthTV, working together to support and celebrate young creators, performers, and storytellers.
Whether you’re a lifelong theatre fan, a film and TV lover, or just discovering the world of performance, join us in our journey Skipping Through Theatre!
