Next Actors: Summer Theatre for Teens emboldens passionate high school students in Milwaukee and surrounding areas to recognize their value and connect artistically to their community.
Next Actors provides a structure for teens to create a student-written performance that is then toured throughout the metro area. With the guidance of professional arts and community leaders, students gain self-awareness and confidence while learning to trust, respect, and collaborate with each other to create their own original work of performance art.
The 2023 Next Actors program will be in two parts. You may join us for one or both sessions described below:
