Youth Arts Festival
A Collaboration between Brava Theater Academy and SF Mime Troupe
T.N.T. Youth Arts Festival has one main goal: to partner younger, less experienced actors and technicians with professional theater practitioners at both organizations. The collaboration creates powerful new theater pieces with an authentic youth voice. All work is written by youth in instruction with professional theatre artisans. All set design and building is created by youth in a supervised setting with a professional Technical Director. TNT Youth Arts Festival was developed to garner mentored relationships for particpants that would go beyond the Festival and create a new inspired, eclectic generation of theater artists. Participating in the TNT Youth Arts Festival incorporates all performing aspects – writing, design, movement and acting. Come join in the fun!
