Looking for Lilith Theatre Company ensemble members will share stories collected during the past two years of their evolving community arts initiative - The Ancestors Project. This culminating event will take guests on an interactive journey that allows them to immerse themselves in the life stories and lessons of the many ancestors whose journeys have informed our lives and communities. Music, drawings, performance art, theatre and ritual come together in a celebration of heritage.
The Ancestors Project has been a series of workshops that we started during the winter of 2023, where we used the past to create in the present. In this evolving community arts project, LFL has collaborated with multiple different Community Partners throughout the Commonwealth to host workshops in which LFL artists led participants in activities exploring stories of their personal ancestors who have inspired and guided them, and transforming these stories into pieces of visual and performance art that were then shared with fellow participants.
Age recommendation: 10 & up
