  • 1.  Seeking a Virtual Play/Performance on Social Justice

    Posted 10-23-2020 14:16
    Hi all,

    Our school is focusing on issues of social justice. I would like to contract a theatre group or individual that would be able to present a play or performance about related topics. I'm in Vermont, so virtually is the only way we can participate.

    I do have a budget and can offer an honorarium. 

    I appreciate any and all suggestions.

    Anna

    All the world's a stage and most of us are desperately unrehearsed.

    The best group I know for that is The Anthropologists in NYC. Their director is Mellssa Moschitto. They are a devised theatre group and would have a lot to share with your students. https://www.theanthropologists.org/

    HI Anna! 
    I have some ideas. Check out Dallas Children's Theatre social justice series: https://www.dct.org/
    You might be interested in a new play called Free to Fly. The youth recorded it recently. https://bgindependentmedia.org/bghs-drama-club-will-present-original-play-on-dangers-of-sex-trafficking/
