WELCOME TO REHEARSAL FOR LIFE
Rehearsal for Life, through the programming of Urban Improv and the Freelance Players, uses theater as a vehicle for social change, empowering young people through creativity, dialogue and performance. We have proudly served over 80,000 young people in Boston and beyond with our dynamic, interactive social and emotional learning programs.
OUR PROGRAMS
Urban Improv is an interactive program for young people that uses structured improvisational theater workshops to strengthen social and emotional (SEL) skills and help students deal creatively with real-life challenges through dialogue and performance.
The Freelance Players engages youth in the creation and performance of original musical theater for audiences of all ages, while fostering imagination, self-expression and mutual respect in young people.
COVID-19 UPDATE
In response to COVID-19 developments and school closures in spring 2020, we have pivoted to virtual programming to serve our remote learners.
You are invited to:
- “Attend” our virtual event, Banned in Boston , on April 1, 2021, for a madcap musical review and Urban Improv program demo;
- Engage with Urban Improv‘s Classroom Care Packages, designed to open and deepen virtual-classroom discussions;
- Register for our virtual spring season of Freelance Players Troupes and classes; and
- Stand with our students, and help us to best respond to their changing needs, by making a generous donation now. Your help is needed now more than ever.
Our transformative work would not be possible without your generosity and support. Make a difference in the lives of thousands of young people in Greater Boston and beyond.
