Save the date! Classlines Aug 24-26

[Anu]

Hello everyone,

I've been working on a collaborative piece called "Classlines" over
the course of this year and last. It's a personal storytelling
project where a group of about 5 people are sharing our own stories of
poverty, wealth and social status. It has morphed, and been a
rewarding, challenging and bonding exploratory process for everyone
involved.

Save the date, and consider coming August 24-26 (Monday-Wednesday) at
8pm at Woolly Mammoth Theater Company to our workshop reading.

At the end, if you choose, you'll get a chance to share your own
stories too. This performance is unique in that the stories are true,
the people are real. There is little device separating you from us.
Unwrapping silence around an issue as thorny as class can be really
hard. Uncomfortable. Even infuriating.

We are hoping to show honesty and truth and vulnerability underneath
the oftentimes vicious lines that divide us as a society. So come,
and hear our stories, and share yours too.

hope you can make it,

Anu

Classlines is a personal storytelling performance project. We are
sharing our own stories on the themes of poverty, wealth and social
status, based on over a year of collaboration, listening and story-
gathering. The stories are intimate, provocative and vulnerable.
Please note: the stories contain references to violence and are
suitable for mature audiences, 16 and older. After the show, we
welcome you to share your stories too.


Classlines is funded in part by the DC Commission on the Arts and
Humanities, the National Endowment for the Arts, and the Creative
Communities Initiative, a project of the Community Foundation of the
National Capitol Region. This performance is produced by Bare Stage
Productions, LLC in association with Young Playwrights' Theater.
