LEGACYThe place where it happens
Youth test brave, contemporary pieces in front of audiences unused to seeing young people claiming the stage.
Cultural exchange
What we learn
We learn how speed changes culture—how a city’s growth shows up in youth identity and voice.
What we share
We share rehearsal structures for creating quickly without losing depth.
Community & context
Dar is movement—people, commerce, music, language. The lab helped youth capture that movement onstage in their own terms.
Shared community needs
- Stable rehearsal access for youth groups
- Support for public sharings and audience building
- Resources for youth-led writing and directing
