Fitting in is overrated!

Here at the Latinx Youth theatre, we are thrilled to announce our show for the 2024-2025 Season!
Out Of Frame
Out of Frame is a playful, vibrant coming-of-age story set in Elephant & Castle, South London.
Meet Mariana: a shy Chilean teenager caught between two worlds; family and independence, childhood and adulthood, virtual life and physical life salsa lessons.
With a little courage (and a lot of pan de bono), she stumbles through birthday parties, school theatre plays, restaurant shifts, and TikTok trends, discovering that belonging isn’t just about fitting in.
Created by the Latinx Youth Theatre 2025 cohort, Out of Frame is the culmination of a year-long program dedicated to giving young Latin Americans in London a space to connect, create, learn, and develop life skills. The result is a bold, funny, physical, and heartfelt new play celebrating identity and community. It invites audiences to laugh, cringe, dance, and cheer alongside a generation learning to speak the language of their hearts.
The Latinx Youth Theatre 2025 is produced by Umba Arts and Community Art Project, with support from Arts Council England, Southwark Playhouse (our home throughout the program and rehearsal process), and Brixton House, where the final sharing takes place.
We are deeply grateful to The Working Party Theatre Company, whose ongoing support has been instrumental to the success of LYT.
