After the War
MAY 17-18, 2024
There is so much happening in the world right now that our news cycle drowns out. It's easy to miss critical news about Congo, Sudan, Palestine, Syria, Afghanistan, El Salvador and so many more countries.
This semester students in the Acting for Critical Transformations (ACT) Project at Downtown High School examined the United States' role in creating and perpetuating humanitarian crises around the globe. Their show, After the War, features monologues, dances, scenes, and plays written by the students that educate us about the roots of these crises and offer us ways we Americans can act in solidarity. Come, be inspired, and be part of the change!
