Young Storytellers BIG SHOW

Rebecca participated as a volunteer actor in Young Storytellers, helping to bring to life 5 original plays by 5th graders in their BIG SHOW.

The amount of creativity these 5th grade storytellers put into their scripts is unmatched (I’m talking 100 year old aliens, ghosts, and a walking TV!)

It was an absolute blast and you can learn more about Young Storytellers and their mission below:

Young Storytellers equips young people to be the driving force of their own narratives. We’re passionate about bringing people together and creating stories to raise the voices of those who don’t often get heard. 

We believe that when a young person understands the power of their own story—made of their unique background, culture, race, gender, sexuality, immigration status, geographic location, and economic status—it creates a more empathetic and equitable future for everyone.

We raise voices, one story at a time.
