Youth News & Community Events

As part of the Barter Youth Academy, Megan and Sue Milhouse are taking part in a production of Winnie the Pooh at the Barter Theatre on Monday, April 11. There are performances by different age groups scheduled throughout the afternoon and evening. Performances by Pre-Academy, Elementary, Middle School, Improv and High School students run from 4:20pm to 8:00pm. Megan and Sue's group will perform from 5:00 - 5:35 pm.

The Barter Youth Academy is a performance-based educational program that allows students of all ages a chance to learn and develop their performance and storytelling skills. Using the acting and rehearsing techniques of the Barter Resident Acting Company, students work through the theatre experience from the audition to the final performance on-stage in front of a live audience. BYA provides a safe, positive environment to enhance the abilities for the beginning perfomer, as well as shaping the talents of the advanced youth actor.
