Abstract	This article examines the performativities of three marginalised "at risk" youth who participated in a longitudinal digital storytelling project undertaken in formal and informal settings in Singapore. Seeking to foster young people's agency, identity and multiple literacies, the three and one half year project developed a range of digital storytelling workshops to engage young people's creativity and expressions of self within a community of authors of digital texts. This article articulates the ways in which the project provided three young people with a platform from which to explore and play with a range of performative identities through the construction of digital and virtual personas and considers some of the possible implications for educators. (Contains 1 note.) (As Provided).
