Colonnades Theatre Lab Inc

Global arts corps (gac) is a consortium of theater artists with a mandate to bring together performers from opposite sides of political, religious, ethnic, and racial divides in order to experience each other's stories and conflicts in new ways. Our mission is to examine world conflict by disarming people in conflict with the experience of their innate ability for perceptual change. Working now with children in an ongoing, multi-year radio exchange project, we work in three main ways: (1) use theater and storytelling as a process to develop group trust and belonging (2) support kids to create their own productions and (3) connect kids across political, religious, ethnic, and racial divides using their stories as a new starting point for communication. Work on this project was conducted in kosovo and wyoming, usa this past year.
