OYP teaches theatre by doing theatre — every class culminates with a performance through which participants explore, experience and integrate various aspects of the arts: writing - the story and the script; visual arts - set, costume and light design; music - sound design, voice, mood music; dance and movement in the simple blocking or complex movement sequences; and increasingly the newer arts, incorporating mixed or multi-media.
