Each year, the Endangered Species theatre Project stages one or more youth performances for young people excited to work with high-quality texts. Led by experienced, professional actors, directors and designers, members of these plays get the unique chance to stage performances for the general public with all-youth actors, designers and stage-managers.

​

Each summer, a youth play is produced at Sky Stage in association with the Frederick Shakespeare Festival. These plays are typically selected from Shakespeare’s canon, and allow young people to dig into the meat that is Elizabethan drama for a summer rehearsal period.

​

Auditions have not yet been scheduled for our Summer 2026 production. However, they will likely be in early June. If you would like to receive updates about these opportunities as they arrive, please email daniels@esptheatre.org.
