Laguna Playhouse recently received support from Bank of America for its Our Stories program, which supports Transitional Age Youth (TAY), ranging from in age from 16 to 25.
Our Stories encourages participants to create original dramatic works using their own life experiences. The program focuses on TAY and at-risk young adults who experience isolation and behavioral health challenges, encouraging them to creatively explore and share their life experiences through storytelling, playwriting and a shared performance opportunity.
“The Our Stories program is vital in helping us to strengthen the health and well-being of individuals at-risk, strengthen community connection, and envision a better future for all through theatre and storytelling techniques,” said Dylan Russell, Laguna Playhouse Director of Education and Outreach. “Bank of America’s support of Our Stories is fundamental in reaching underserved communities. We are immensely grateful for their support of this very important program.”
