The Young Shakespeareans
Transforming Futures through the Power of Arts Education
OUR PEOPLE
Shared Values, Priorities, and Passion
LOS ANGELES' FUTURE DEPENDS ON THE SUCCESS OF ALL OF OUR CHILDREN.
​
The Young Shakespeareans, our Partners, Collaborators, and Funders are passionate professionals devoted to creating a future of equitable opportunity for children regardless of race, color, ethnicity, language, origin, religion, or socio-economic status.​
​
Education is the best way forward. TYS was founded and exists expressly to discover, cultivate, and celebrate every child's innate intelligence, talent, spirit, and drive. We “level the playing field” by weaving the threads of what we have in common with those of diverse cultures and histories to build bridges that will successfully carry our society forward. ​
TYS sets throws down the gauntlet of high expectations so our students consistently soar as they learn
"If I can do Shakespeare, I can do anything!"
