Part of the Occupation Series, marking the 250th anniversary of Bostons 1768 occupation by British troops
A West African proverb says, When an elder dies, a library burns down. Our elders knowledge, common sense, and life lessons are threads that strengthen the tapestry of our communities. Yet their voices often go unheard. This performance, directed by Boston-based performance artist Valerie Stephens, is part of a community theater project designed to bridge that disconnect and give elders a voice throughout the city. It is the second of two public performances that mark completion of an Elder Storytelling Project at the Kroc Center in Dorchester. Bring family or friends and learn Life Lessons from local residents whose stories have not yet been chronicled!
This program is made possible with support from the New England Foundation for the Arts and the Lowell Institute. FREE AND OPEN TO THE PUBLIC, registration requested at http://osmhmay17-18.bpt.me
