Berkeley Rep Teen Council
Berkeley Rep Teen Council provides Bay Area teens with access to theatre for little or no cost. Questions? Email [email protected]
We are actors, directors, writers, designers, improvisers, and theatre-goers. Teen Council brings together a diverse group of teens (grades 9–12) from all over the Bay Area. We write, direct, and perform in our own productions, see plays at local theatres, explore different artistic departments through interactive workshops, and get a behind-the-scenes look at what happens at Berkeley Rep through interviews with professional artists. Teen Council is run by the Core Council, a creative teen leadership collective who meet monthly to design and run an exciting season of exclusive teen events. Our mission is to cultivate the next generation of theatre audiences and professionals.
