Creativity is
Boundless in Teen
Talent Showcase
Put 10 promising young artists in a workshop of a
veteran director and cook under the pressure of a public
performance within weeks and what do you get?

A theatrical event that blends drama, hip-hop, poetry,
comedy, film, dance and storytelling.

Phantom Projects Educational Theatre Group’s Fourth
Annual Young Artist Project is currently providing such
the crucible for a talented troupe of strangers who have
come together quickly to learn, create and experience
the joys and pressures of creating professional theatre.
Everything is original and created by the young
participants.

The event brings together aspiring artists between the
ages of 16 and 23 to merge their unique talents –
whether writing, directing, acting, singing, dancing, etc. –
in a collaborative effort to develop  performance pieces
by members of the group.  All are asked to contribute in
more than one area over a two-week rehearsal process
leading up to the public performance at the La Mirada
Theatre for the performing Arts on August 7.

The Young Artist Project will make it possible for young
people to have their visions come to life in a major
Southland venue,
” said Cisneros.  “They will contribute
to a performance that is completely written, created and
performed by some of Southern California’s brightest
young artists.  It should be as exciting for the audience at
the La Mirada Theatre for the Performing Arts as it will
be for these future stars to test their talents
.”

Because it is a fluid rehearsal project, as much for
development and encouragement of the talent as to
prepare for a specific performance, the great benefit for
the participants will be the immersion into a real working
environment"
he said.

Seeking—Playwrights, Actors, Dancers,
Choreographers, Musicians, Film makers, singers,:
males and females, 16-23, any ethnicity, will have access
to a 5,000 square ft rehearsal space, 1,251-seat theatre,
lighting, sound, and scenery and costumes.
