It’s theatre without a net.
No actors. No play. No script.
Theatre for Living continues a 32-year legacy of innovation with a project about the corporate voices that live within our collective psyche.
The messages from corporations tell us hundreds of times a day, in ways we may not notice anymore, how to relate to each other and to ourselves; what to buy, how to feel, how to perceive and the kind of person to aspire to be.
Can we use the theatre to become aware of these messages, and to change our relationships to them, to live healthier and more sustainable lives with each other, with ourselves, and with the planet?
This project hopes to be more than just an investigation — we have a desire for Corporations in our Heads to move into transformative action.
How? By making each event relevant, at a grassroots level, to each unique community in which it happens and for the local organizers to use that momentum to move forward on community issues.
Each event is the community’s creation — a process in which the whole evening of theatre emerges from the audience. On-stage participation is optional.
Although the topic is serious, the evening is intended to be a great deal of fun.
Hosted by David Diamond, the Corporations in our Heads takes place on Friday, Nov. 29, 7 p.m. at the United Churches of Langley. For more information about the Corporations in our Heads tour call 604-871-0508 or www.theatreforliving.com.
