Paper Wings
Theatre Exile works with the teenagers at Norris Square Neighborhood Project (NSNP). Tucked in a small house in a primarily underserved Latino neighborhood in East Kensington, Exile and NSNP work together using theatre techniques to help raise self-esteem and expand the kids’ skill set to help them communicate better, improve their conflict resolution skills and let them feel more empowered in their world.
The students meet approximately once a week from October through April with Exile's teaching artists. Beginning with improvisations, the students ultimately write and perform in their own multi-disciplinary production.
