The Glastonbury MLK Community Initiative invites you to a Community Conversation on April 23 entitled A Journey Toward Justice. The event will feature Looking In Theater, a performance ensemble comprised of teenagers from the Greater Hartford area who explore socially relevant issues and create original theater highlighting these issues.
This free event will take place at the Riverfront Community Center at 300 Welles Street in Glastonbury. A reception will be held at 5:30 PM and performances will start at 6:00.
Looking In Theater is an interactive theater ensemble. The teenage actors, trained in the issues, create the scripts based on issues they are seeing and experiencing themselves. A performance consists of a series of short dramatic scenes followed by discussion with the audience in which actors answer questions as their characters. The aim of the program is to highlight topics so audience members might begin to talk openly about these issues and better clarify their own values and social responsibilities. The actors’ performances start the conversation.
