PLEASE NOTE: Due to the heat advisory and the anticipated temperatures, the 2:30 PM reading of Youth Underground's How Do We Heal will be moved indoors to 450 Massachusetts Avenue. Masks are required for all.
Youth Underground, Central Square Theater's resident youth performance ensemble, presents a free reading of a new play exploring youth mental health. Created over a six-week intensive, and drawn from interviews with the teens and members of their community, How Do We Heal? considers questions like "Why do we only address mental health when there's a crisis?", "Why do adults often seem dismissive or unprepared for youth mental health challenges?", and "How has the Pandemic affected youth mental health?". YU's summer intensive is a partnership with the Cambridge Mayor's Summer Youth Employment Program.
