The CityKids Repertory Company (Rep) is a critically-acclaimed performance company made up of diverse young people, ages 13 -19, from all over the New York metropolitan area.  Rep members create and perform their own hip, exciting musical, dance and dramatic pieces that share powerful messages with young people and adults.

 

Rep adds instant energy to school assemblies, community events, conferences, and festivals with engaging and entertaining live performances.  Recent performances include a guest appearance in Disney’s Young Musicians Symphony Orchestra Special (which aired nationally on the Disney Channel), halftime at a New York Knicks Game, and a stop on Oxygen Media’s National Tank Tour.
