Kids will take part in games, explore characters, have fun with voices and language and physicality, and make costumes & scenery for a short, joyful play.

Improv Classes for Teens with Jane Baker
What is improv? Is it throwing people onstage and seeing what happens? Nah, although that might be fun. Improv has rules and goals and the biggest is to make eachother look good while we tell a good story. Improv is fun and games and silliness. Come play and I promise you'll learn a playful and creative tool for not only the theater,but your every day life! Dress in clothes you can move in and bring a snack. We'll take a 10 minute break midway through each class.
Can't wait to teach and learn together.

Calling all outlaws in Lincoln Green: Robin Hood is back!
This version uses a topsy-turvy tumble of silly puns in the storytelling, mixed with fantastical feats of derring-do, archery contests, and of course, heroic deeds of proactive wealth redistribution! A smorgasbord of dozens of characters means there's more than enough for everyone to do. There will be a great emphasis on ensemble work, lots of contributions from the peanut gallery and forest creatures, as well as star turns by a long list of heroes and villains of all types. This is a play that requires a high level of disciplined irreverence, orchestrated chaos!
Please memorize one minute of a monologue, poem, or spoken song lyrics for the audition workshop. Whether it's something you know already or a new piece that tickles your fancy, learn it well enough that you can repeat it in all different ways. This is a game-playing audition.

Adapted from the novel by Louisa May Alcott, the timeless tale of the March sisters will grace the NEYT stage for the third time. Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy navigate the perils of growing up in Civil War-era New England, raised by mother “Marmee” while their father is off serving as a Union chaplain. Encompassing love, loss, joy, ambition, and the enduring bond of family, this story is deservedly beloved.
