Organization Description
As a Theatre Outreach Ensemble, Youtheatre Movement (YTM) is passionate about humans and their story. Our Productions become a voice for those who do not have a voice, often edgy, innovative, and willing to go out on a limb. One non-negotiable principle we maintain is to encourage everyone to uncover the truth about who they are, and to live out their true story. The YTM Apprenticeship Program is training by fire, in that our cast, crew, and understudies are learning by a full production experience, live performance, and touring immersion. We believe “Identity is seen through Story”, and as such, we are a thriving community for those who wish to share life transparently and with unabashed conviction.
