Community Literacy Center: Play on Words - Fall 2025

Have your child join us to write plays, act out stories, and play theater games!

You child can’t get enough of dressing up and acting out stories? Join us and they'll turn favorite stories into plays while learning some theater fundamentals. The focus of this program is creating lots of works rather than preparing a polished, final performance. Participants can join at any time.

No refunds are provided unless the program/session is cancelled.

Click the '+' on your desired registration block(s) to enroll. Review the Online Registration Instructions before enrolling for the best outcome. This includes instructions for creating a Family or Student/Individual account.

Family Accounts are recommended for enrolling multiple children from one family in any UNH Youth Program. If you already have an account in our system, you will be asked to log into either a Family or Student Account after adding the program to your shopping cart. Be sure to use the username and password for the type of account you wish to log into. We recommend attempting to log into the Student or Family account before enrollment opens as this will minimize difficulty and time while enrolling. Email youth.programs@unh.edu if you require assistance recovering your account information. Do not create a new account if you have one already.

If you don't have an account already, you can set up an account at any time, even before you begin the registration process. If creating a student account, the account profile should be in the name of the participating student, but the email should be that of a parent/guardian. Review the Online Registration Instructions before creating a new account.

Arrival/Drop-off: Please arrive 5-10 minutes early to programming so that programming can start on time. Children in grades four and below must be dropped off by an adult.

Late Arrivals:  If your child arrives late, please make sure to check your child in face-to-face with a CLC staff member.

Dismissal: All minors must be dismissed to an authorized adult. Please make sure all authorized adults know to have a picture ID for pick-up. The default place for CLC pick-up is the waiting room in the 111 Suite. If you need a different pick-up location, like the parking spots outside of Morrill Hall, contact the organizer of your child’s program.

The UNH Community Literacy Center is located in Suite 109 of Morrill Hall, 62 College Rd., Durham, NH.
