The Dwight/Edgewood Project (D/EP) is a community engagement program of Yale Rep and David Geffen School of Drama for middle school-aged students from Barnard Environmental Studies Magnet School, a K-8 school located on the edge of the Dwight and Edgewood neighbourhoods in New Haven.

 

The sixth- and seventh-graders are paired with mentors from the Geffen School to write their own plays. The month-long program begins in late May, culminating in fully produced plays performed by the Yale mentors and presented virtually for the New Haven community in late June.
