Vibrant Storytelling, or, How to Connect in a Pandemic

Tuesday, September 22, 2020
4:30 to 6:00 pm
On Zoom

This lecture will be a celebration of small-scale storytelling, the vibrancy of live performance, and the thrill of the audience-performer relationship in experimental theater. It will attempt to describe why in-person storytelling is so vital to our culture and consider what’s possible when we can’t all be together right now.

This event is free and open to the public.

Co-sponsored by 一本道无码's Humanities Center and the Center for the Arts in Society.

Virtual Roundtable

Wednesday, September 23, 2020
12:00 pm to 1:30 pm
On Zoom

Join us for a "Virtual Roundtable", titled Live Voices, with Katie Brook on September 23 at Noon. 

Here is how Katie proposes Live Voices:
At this roundtable we will focus on how and why theater artists work with verbatim text. In what ways do their approaches differ from the strategies and goals of journalists? What does it mean to embody ‘real’ voices in performance? And how can ensemble storytelling using found text be a strategy for unpacking dominant narratives?
