Trafalgar Theatre
Finalists will perform live in front of an audience as they compete to be national champions in their category. Alongside the performances, the event will also include a presentation recognising those whose work made the regional shortlists and were commended by our judges, making this a celebration of exceptional young talent and achievement in solo performance.
The National Youth Monologues is a UK-wide performance platform for young actors aged 9–19, created to provide accessible, high-quality opportunities for solo performance. Open to entrants from all backgrounds, the competition brings together students from schools, youth theatres and independent pathways, offering a structured route from initial entry through to regional and national finals.
Supported by leading organisations including Trafalgar Entertainment, the Trafalgar Trust, Methuen Drama and the Federation of Drama Schools, the National Youth Monologues champions emerging talent and aims to remove barriers to participation in the performing arts. Following a successful launch, the competition has grown rapidly, attracting thousands of entries and establishing itself as a significant new platform for young performers across the UK and beyond.

Trafalgar Theatre
The Grade II listed Trafalgar Theatre in London’s West End, formerly known as Trafalgar Studios, is the result of a major multi-million pound restoration project. Reinstating the venue back to its original design to show off its spectacular auditorium once again, the theatre boasts brand new seating, bar and spacious foyer.
The Trafalgar Theatre opened in 1930 as the Whitehall Theatre and has retained its recognisable Art Deco style exterior ever since. In 1997 it became a television and radio studio, broadcasting BBC Radio 4 shows. Now a thriving theatre once again, it’s home to the hit West End show, People, Places and Things.
