SUMMARY:Hands Up! Forgiveness
DESCRIPTION:In Hands Up! Forgiveness\, seasoned performers bring profound and deeply moving stories to life. Storytellers with and without disabilities share real-life experiences that reveal the transformative power of compassion\, wisdom\, and kindness in the face of pain and betrayal. These stories illuminate the difficult choices people make to let go of hurt\, reminding us that forgiveness is a choice\, not an obligation. It is sometimes less about absolving others and more about healing for oneself. The show will incorporate the uplifting and transformative djembe drumming performed by Victoria Boateng. In addition\, the theme will be explored through the movement\, music\, and expressions evoked by the dances of ReinventAbility. This show invites us to see forgiveness not as an act of weakness\, but as a courageous\, self-nurturing choice that teaches us about the depths of empathy and strength we carry within.

SUMMARY:Dylan Mulvaney: Paper Doll at The Den Theatre

In this conversation\, Mulvaney discusses her debut book Paper Doll: Notes from a Late Bloomer\, giving us an inside look into her “Days of Girlhood” series\, how she handled scandals and cancellations\, and her first big break in theater — all while never shying away from discussing the transphobia she faced online.

SUMMARY:A LIE OF THE MIND - Raven Theatre (Captions)
DESCRIPTION:The full moon over the highway. A pay phone call in the middle of the night. And a terrible act of violence that forever changes the trajectory of eight people’s lives. Sam Shepard’s A Lie of the Mind follows two families\, connected by marriage\, as they grapple with the pain and fear of loving and living. Famous for his imagery\, language\, and tour-de-force roles for actors\, Shepard’s plays dig deep into the ideas of family\, destiny\, and American idealism. Raven’s production\, directed by Azar Kazemi\, deepens the questions at the heart of the play by layering an Immigrant story on top of the already searing critique of the American Dream at the heart of this American Classic. \nThis accessibility feature is designed to support the theatre going experience of patrons who are d/Deaf or Hard of Hearing\, or who may just prefer to read the text and sound cues in sync with a performance. Our captions are prepared beforehand by an experienced captioner and are displayed as 1-3 sentences per slide. During the performance\, our captioner will scroll through the slides so patrons can read the dialogue in real time. The Captions screens are hands-free and provided by Raven free-of-charge. \nSpaces are limited\, so please contact our box office to make your reservation! Use code LIEACCESS for a $30 ticket. \nAccessibility: closed captioning. \nhttps://www.raventheatre.com/stage/lie/
