True North Youth Theatre Ensemble brings together young people who may be disenfranchised and/or have little access to an arts program at school. Many of them have dropped out of school, or truant regularly, and it is this life experience which is brought to the stage in Dropout.
True North Youth Theatre Ensemble was founded by Alirio Zavarce as vehicle for engaging disengaged young people, through the power of theatrical expression.
True North Youth Theatre Ensemble present their inaugural performance from the Pathways Leadership Program.
True North was founded by Alirio Zavarce when he saw the lack of theatrical opportunities for young people, particularly those living in the northern suburbs.
Director Alirio Zavarce returns to the helm of the True North Youth Theatre Ensemble to pose the question, "What is home?" and let children and teenagers answer sincerely.
