Youth Outreach - Youth Theatre Company

Each summer, the Paramount Theatre's Education/Outreach Department hires twenty low income students whose paid, summer job is to write, produce, and tour a production. For this project:

• The goal of this production is to capture the students voices as well as the voices of their community.
• The five week program ends with the participants touring their production around the City of Austin, performing in venues such as the Boys and Girls Club, Dell Children's Hospital, summer schools, and an elderly home.
• The students' job experience concludes with a final public performance on the historic Paramount stage.
