Hey actors? Want to work with LA's best creatives? (Hint: it’s our students). Bring our students' screenplays to life in an upcoming Big Show! Young Storytellers is looking for volunteer performers to dedicate a couple of hours to perform at an upcoming 'Big Show,' an in-school assembly where volunteer actors bring our students' stories to life on the stage in front of their classmates and the school community.

Mission Statement

Young Storytellers sparks creative self-discovery through storytelling. Our programs highlight young people as the center of their own narratives, emphasize that their stories matter, and celebrate their unique voices as the ones telling them. We work towards a future where young people experience, through their stories, the impact that their thoughts, feelings, and words can have on the world. We raise voices, one story at a time.

Program Description

In elementary school, we use storytelling to help young people explore their creativity and imagination. In middle school, we focus on their goals for the future and challenges they might face. In high school, we explore how their voice can impact their community and the broader world.
