From September to December, Mixed Company Theatre - in partnership with the Syrian Canadian Foundation, the Arab Community Centre of Toronto, and Scadding Court Community Centre - has had the privilege of hosting a series of free Forum Theatre workshops for the GTA Arabic-speaking newcomer community. For the past three months newcomers and community participants worked alongside our facilitators to use Forum Theatre as a tool to generate discussions around issues of identity, loneliness, cross-cultural adaptation, and homesickness.
We are blown away by the work that has been created in these workshops and are so grateful to the community for sharing their stories with us. We are pleased to announce that this project will culminate in a showcase created and performed by our community participants for the community entitled HOME AWAY FROM HOME.
This event will take place December 15th AND 16th, 2018, at the Friends House (60 Lowther Avenue) in downtown Toronto. This event will be performed in both Arabic and English with no subtitles. Admission is FREE thanks to the generous support of the Catherine Donnelly Foundation. Doors will open for refreshments at 6:30 PM and the show will be begin at 7:00 PM.
