    We are currently living through the chaos and isolation caused by a global pandemic and, at the same time, people are uniting through global protests against systemic racism. What In The World?! is about the way young people are seeing and experiencing the trauma and triumphs resulting from these events. Through the art of theater, their voices can be heard. This show demonstrates how the youth of today are facing these issues head on, taking action and planning for change in the world. The world has changed and our youth can help us change too.

    Because this year’s Summer Youth Theater Program is being conducted virtually, it is allowing us to share this experience with other youths and adults from all around the country through online performances.

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
