Welcome To Y.E.S. Articles

This introduction to Y.E.S. Articles illustrates our intentions in publishing articles by the next generation of theater-makers and outlines what we, the members of Y.E.S., plan to explore in our writings. We hope this article helps set the tone for our future articles, which all have the purpose of amplifying youth voices in the celebration, education, and promotion of equity, diversity, inclusivity, and belonging in theatre and Shakespeare’s work.
