PJP Goes Virtual!
From February–April 2021, Laura Epperson and I partnered with the Wheelock Family Theatre to design, direct, and produce a virtual Performing Justice Project. Working with Wheelock’s Youth Advisory Council, we met twice a week for six weeks. The ensemble of young people (ages 13-21) devised an original performance titled A Play on Words that expressed their vision of a liberated world.
