Community Engaged Theater

All of the plays in this section are original works created through a Community Engaged Theatre Making method. This process involves the collaboration and participation of members of local diverse communities and our creative team.  The objective of this process is to develop and produce of an original play which is devised through this collaboration.  Projects of this nature create a dialogue, builds bridges between communities and gives a voice to the voiceless.  These projects would not be possible without our community partners and participants.

​

"We believe that the process of community engagement in the arts and the creation of original work results in giving participants a collaborative process that will help strengthen the community and promote tolerance, understanding and productive dialogue."

All work here was produced by, Sanctuary Stage. This company was co-founded by myself and Tinamarie Ivey. Sanctuary Stage has been the recipient of numerous state funded grants from the California Arts Council and the Oregon Arts Commission
