Enjoy a pre-show experience designed for high school students by high school students from A.R.T.’s Youth Action Team before the September 23 performance of Twilight: Los Angeles, 1992. Participants will enjoy refreshments and engage in a guided conversation inspired by the voices of the show. Gather with us to reflect on the past and present of racial violence, the stories we tell about race, and the path to a more equitable society.
The Youth Action Team (Y.A.T.) is a paid, year-long program beginning this summer for incoming high school juniors that develops leadership skills through original creative arts producing. Participants are forming a community of like-minded peers and industry connections as they design and implement their own arts initiatives in collaboration with A.R.T.’s values and programming. Y.A.T. members will leave the program equipped and inspired to become change-makers in their communities.
