*ClimateAct: A Participatory Play Reading*
Thursday, November 9th from 6-9 pm
Main Street Landing Black Box Theater
Burlington, Vermont

In Tandem Arts and Climate Change Theatre Action are hosting an OPEN PLAY READING at Main Street Landing's Black Box Theater.

Aligned with the COP23 (23rd United Nations Convention on Climate Change), the event is a theater forum for dialogue in tandem with a participatory reading of short plays.

NO PERFORMANCE EXPERIENCE REQUIRED. Actors, non-actors and viewers are ALL
WELCOME.

Actors will choose from dramatic, experimental and/or comedic pieces to perform (through a sign-up process). Viewers will gain perspective on the issue through exposure to cultural vantage points from around the globe.

Actors and (curious) Non-Actors should plan to come at 6 pm to prepare for the reading. Participatory viewers come at 7 pm.

Curated by In Tandem Arts, the plays are selected from a collection of 50 original works that address an aspect of climate change by playwrights representing 25 different cultures. The collection has been compiled by Climate Change Theatre Action (CCTA), a collaboration between the Center for Sustainable Practice in the Arts, NoPassport Theatre Alliance, The Arctic Cycle, Theatre Without Borders, and York University.
