Upcoming Performance: "Urban Dreams"

Location: Hight School in the Community, 175  Water St., New Haven, Conn.

Date: 6 p.m. Monday, June 18

The Urban Dreams production will address "the everyday issues  that teenagers face inside & outside the classrooms. Through a story of explosive Rap & Hip-Hop lyrics, soulful singing, live music & spoken word, these teens will confront issues such as violence, relationships, media, teacher student conflicts, faith and more; dealing with harsh realities of growing up in environments that feel more like warzones, these teens strive to re-define Urban Dreams," says director Frank E. Brady.

From the minds of the talented students of High School In the Community comes   “Urban Dreams,” a cutting edge play created by teenagers in New Haven that combines comedic outlooks, gripping performances and spell binding  monologues.
