A night of youth-lead theatre.

This festival is hosted and being planned and directed by the teen members of YETi (Youth Ensemble Theatre Inc). The scripts are written by Childsplay students and performed by actors of the community.

 

All proceeds go directly back to YETi, a program that partners teens with theatre professionals and empowers them to produce theatre from the ground up.

 

Concessions will be sold at the event. We accept cash, card, and digital cards.
