Try travelingplayers.org. It is a great program and middle school students don’t have to audition to get a part. TPE is a wonderful community and kids can really find a home there. They have summer and winter programs for middle and high schoolers.
Oh bummer, it’s in VA; I’m near Rockville, MD. Thanks anyway!
Highwood in DTSS has a similar ethos and is closer to you.
Just seeing this now, thank you!!
DP Just want to second Highwood. Lots of kids on the spectrum who act, play music, work in building the sets or tech and everyone is welcome and has friends.
