Looking forward to seeing you in Ottawa!

This summer, members of the LGBTQ Families Speak Out team conducted a five-day workshop to begin disseminating some of the interview data in the form of a verbatim theatre play.  Verbatim theatre has been described "as stories from real life"; "a piece of theatre made by interviewing people"; "work that draws in some way from real life of a community"; "a commitment to put... the voice of that community on stage"; "and work which... has some ethical obligation back to that community" (Brown & Wake, 2010, p. 2).

The workshop allowed us to arrive at a first draft, and we will be sharing that first draft with a group of student actors in October.  We hope to be able to share a snippet with you soon.​
