THE VERBATIM SALON: Stories of Immigration to the United States
Wednesday July 16th at 7pm @ Theatre Row
With support from the American Playwriting Foundation, the Verbatim Salon is a monthly public event where actors share stories from interviews recorded with people interacting with the US immigration system. These stories are performed using an in-ear verbatim technique. Actors listen in real time to the recordings via headphones as they speak the words aloud in front of the audience. Each month, rather than paying admission, audiences are encouraged to make a donation to a rotating list of organizations supporting immigrants and refugees with a range of services. This month all proceeds go to the Center for Constitutional Rights.
