Teen HYPE’s “Two Detroits” play explores youth, identity and social divides in Detroit
Teen HYPE’s play, “Two Detroits,” tells the story of two teens from vastly different backgrounds, navigating the same city and systemic inequities. The play explores how privilege, education and zip codes can influence the lives of young people. Host Stephen Henderson talks with Teen HYPE CEO Ambra Redrick and Youth Advisory Council Member Omega Clemons about the play.
