Join Translate Gender's trans youth community theatre collective, co-ACT, on their original final show.

When a group of students find an old edition of a Dungeons & Dragons game during science class, nothing prepares them to a journey between worlds in their pursue after a shattered crystal, exposing stories that are not allowed to be told. Join the cast on their quest for transformation and self-acceptance, as they discover their authentic selves facing mysterious quests, magical beings, and one weirdly queer Dragon!

Each year the youth write and create an original show based on their lived experience, stories, and imagination. This year, join the youth through a journey of adventures, an enchanted forest, a creepy tower, a magical being and an all mysterious dragon!

Masks are mandatory to attend the show. The venue is accessible. Lets support our communities together.

The co-ACT Youth Theatre Collective supports trans, nonbinary, and gender-expansive youth in creating a playful space to share personal and collective narratives, explore identities, and unite around shared lived experiences by integrating the magical tools of theatre.

co-ACT engages in acting, theatre play, dramatizing subjective narratives, role-play, improv, and much more. co-ACT supports youth to gender self-determination, self-expressions, and non-judgmental exploration of identities, including (but not limited to) gender. Each year, the collective write and create an original play/musical based on their stories and shared lived experiences.
