TONIGHT'S SHOW CANCELED: SATURDAY, JANUARY 19.
DUE TO THE SLOW MOVING WEATHER SYSTEM HEADING OUR WAY, AND TEMPERATURES DIPPING BELOW FREEZING, WE REGRET THAT WE ARE CANCELLING TONIGHT'S SHOW.
Thank you to all the patrons that were able to come out on Friday night and interact with the teens. The teens did a magnificent job and we are proud of their accomplishments.
The Justice Theater Project presented one evening of interactive performances based on scripts created by local farmworker teens. A facilitator guided the audience as they asked questions, stopped the show, and became a part of the event. Rooted in Augusto Boal's Forum Theatre model, The Justice Theater Project's objective is to create discourse around issues of social concern, firmly situating JTP as the only theater company of its kind in Central North Carolina.
This unique experience opens up a space where audience and teens express thoughts and feelings on the current conditions and issues involving farmworkers, their families, and societies ever changing views on immigration, identity, perception and human dignity.
In collaboration with Student Action with Farmworkers Project Levante.
Facilitated by Deb Royals, Artistic Director, The Justice Theater Project.
Sponsored by The Mary Duke Biddle Foundation, Inc., The United Arts Council of Wake County, The North Carolina Arts Council, and Student Action with Farmworkers.
