It’s Time We Pay Them A Visit
The earth isn’t dying. People are killing the earth. And those people have names and addresses. It’s time we pay them a visit.
Join a group of adventurers in this allegory for getting unstuck and taking action to stop the imperialist white supremacist capitalist patriarchy. The show sits atop our dying world, and explores what it will take for us to hear our instincts and follow our impulses to take a collective next step to confront and dismantle the systems that are destroying us. It lands somewhere between performance and practice space for envisioning economic and social transformation.
Also, it’s a comedy.
Philly Education Stories - Podcast
In Season One, a group of Philadelphia public school students and educators share stories of confronting policing both inside and outside our schools, as well as creative and collective interventions toward abolition and healing.
The storytellers featured are Black youth and a multiracial group of educators, who far too often are vilified, stereotyped or dismissed by mainstream media. With their experiences at the center, they take listeners on the journey from what is to what should be, pushing back against the daily and structural violences that Philadelphians have been forced to normalize and numb ourselves to, and instead, articulate the world and life that we deserve
Philly Education Stories - Play
This full-length original play is the outcome of the Teacher Action Group’s year-long project to explore and embody educators’ and students’ frustration, rage and trauma with schooling, as well as their visions for educational transformation.
Co-created from convening over 150 educators and students in Story Circles and Theater Devising workshops, Philadelphia Education Stories serves as a stepping stone on the path toward larger transformation. More than just a play, it is a cultural organizing project, in which we used the theater-making process as a strategy to cultivate intergenerational solidarity, practice taking accountability for committing harm, and amplify participants’ calls for systemic change.
