WEIRD by Y.E.T. (Youth Ensemble Theatre), Rosendale

WEIRD is an original interactive play about Grayson, an unconventional young person. Repeatedly ostracized by peers and teachers, Grayson develops a warped view of the world and themselves. Seen through the eyes of this central character, the play takes us on a journey, which includes audience interactions, non-traditional staging, and breaks the fourth wall and asks what it is worth to fit in?

Longing for a smarter, kinder world, the play’s journey reveals Grayson’s dreams of fitting in, and the courage it takes to survive in a culture designed for someone else.

WEIRD champions the originality that exists within all of us and considers how we can honor our differences, savor our uniqueness, and create an equal space for those of us that dare to be singular, unique, free.
