Is there a link I missed to the evaluation form?

Mobilizing hearts and minds is also part of my climate job in my experience

Sorry I have to leave early! Hope to see you next time.

Thanks Sheila!

Would you please repeat the question and/or put it in the chat?

MAIN PROMPT: What are ways we can communicate about climate to our audiences? We have rooms full of people night after night--should and what should we be talking about?

Thank you!

ADDITIONAL PROMPTS: What is the role of theatres at the local level for fostering dialogue around community-specific climate issues?Building awareness around how regions in the country are being affected now, or will be soon enough, so we can talk specifics in terms of field impactDe-centering "our" work on the climate crisis in theatre and how to uplift the work that has already been done

I also don't mean to derail Corinna's prompts, which are still on the table!

Apologies for this wordy response! There is actually so much more I would like to say, but it is a little noisy on my end! At the Omaha Theater Company, we are getting ready to start info meetings for our teen production Before the World Goes Dark. This will be our second year. During this process, we partner with local orgs who focus on green/sustainable practices. Rehearsals with the young people include: a topic discussion, devising around said topic, and a talk back about what the ensemble created. We also use clean, recycled materials to create lobby displays, props, set pieces, and costume pieces. It is also important to us to volunteer time to the orgs who came in to speak to us and help w/ community clean ups, etc.

That is fantastic!

Chat saved!

SO we can follow up on that :)
