Our Productions: Diversity Series

Below we provide a brief description of our productions in the Diversity Series. Although we list specific age groups, all of our works have and can be performed for audiences of all ages.

Stories of a New America

Written by the members of Collective Consciousness Theatre

In a partnership with IRIS, we developed this new play through interviews with more than 80 refugees who have resettled, because of civil unrest in their homeland, in New Haven. Capturing their hopes, fears, past and present, this production is brought to life by five multilingual artists playing more than two dozen roles. This unique play that features diverse stories from Iraq, Afghanistan, Cuba and the Congo has already been recognized in the media locally and nationally as a “powerful, original work relevant to the world today.” Funded in part by New Alliance Foundation and the Annie E. Casey Foundation.
