Description

Change the action. Stop the violence.
Created in 2006 by youth and professional artists, Far From the Heart is a story about coming of age, violation and redemption. It begins with two boys (Warren and Adam) and two girls (Felicity and Rachel) getting ready for "the big party." The play uses interactive "forum theatre" that allows audience members to change the outcome of various realistic, problematic scenarios. Spectators are able to suggest different actions onstage, as well as act out their ideas with the professional cast. A facilitator (The Joker) emcees the performances, and trained community partners help lead lively discussions to debrief the audience interventions. In the end, Far From the Heart seeks to help young people develop healthy attitudes and behaviours based on honesty, equality, respect and safety.
By Donation. For ages 12+
