YAE TEAM-UP

The Young Artists Ensemble teams up with a talented group of performers with disabilities and the CRPD Therapeutic Recreation Department to form the YAE TEAM-UP!

What is YAE Team-Up?

YAE TeamUp is a collaborative program with the Young Artists Ensemble (YAE) and Conejo Recreation and Park District’s Therapeutic Recreation Unit where young actors of all abilities can competitively audition, rehearse, and perform a full-length musical or play. A truly unique program that encourages the arts for all,  encourages friendships, understanding, and life skills between the youth participants of YAE and the Therapeutic Recreation Department. This program is open for youth ages 10-18. 

There are also workshops to help participants get to know each other, learn about the performances, and audition process. This year we have two workshops. The first workshop concluded on September 13. The second workshop will be held on Tuesday, December 2 from 6-8 pm and will be available for registration during the fall/winter registration period.

Competitive auditions will be held on the weekend of December 6 and 7.  

For our adults with disabilities, the Therapeutic Recreation Department is relaunching theatre classes and workshops. They are continuing to rebuild a new program for those over 18. We appreciate everyone's patience as we transition from CTFE (Conejo Theatre for Everyone) into these two new programs. Please reach out to Trunit@crpd.org for future workshops and classes.

What is this year's show and how can I learn more about it?
