Meet TAYPE - the Theatre Askew Youth Performance Experience. TAYPE is an educational theatre program that empowers le***an, gay, bisexual, transgender, and questioning (LGBTQ) youth and their allies in the New York area by nurturing and developing their unique theatrical voices. Under the mentorship of working artists within a professional theatre company, TAYPE participants are guided through the

creation and production of self-generated and collaborative theatre projects that hone vital life skills in communication, teamwork, and leadership. TAYPE performances are presented as part of Theatre Askew’s annual programming in order to connect a broad and diverse community with the next generation of LGBTQ voices. The TAYPE program, informed by Theatre Askew’s concern for the outsider perspective, provides a safe, creative forum for the often isolated and unheard youth of the LGBTQ population.
