Theatre Forums at UCV Jan 27 and Feb 24, 2019
The first two forums for 2019 will feature theatre with a focus on community-engaged theatre. In January, our own Diane Brown, artistic director of Ruby Slippers, will talk about improv theatre techniques and engage with the audience in some simple exercises. In February, we’re very pleased to have Lenore Rowntree, local writer and most recently, producer. Lenore has volunteered with MPA (Motivation, Power and Achievement, previously Mental Patients Association) leading a group of people living with mental illness to create a documentary theatre production, SRO (Single Room Occupancy not Standing Room Only) Stars, which had its premiere at the Heart of the City Festival. She will talk about Arts and the Filter of Mental Illness.
Mark the 4th Sunday in January and February on your calendar. Click here to see all upcoming forums.
If you are involved with theatre as writer, actor, behind-the-scenes or enthusiastic audience member you are invited to join our new group who are interested in planning some events for UCV including kids, youth and adults.
We also have an email group for people to share their recommendations for local theatre, and sometimes individuals put out an invitation to attend a play as a group. To subscribe to this email, send a blank email to ucv-arts-and-culture+subscribe@googlegroups.com
