Why Reader's Theater?
We aim to bring the vibrant stories of historically marginalized communities to life through a compelling Reader's Theater and the joy of inclusive critical literacy. Our process involves collaboration with local community members, from toddler to senior, to curate a powerful experience that reflects the richness of identities. The Reader's Theater format allows for a dynamic presentation, incorporating elements of storytelling, drama, and community engagement!
Utilizing the mediums of live performance and crafting, "Kahani" employs a mix of techniques and approaches to advocacy. The project strategically aligns with the local community plan by promoting inclusivity and contributing to a more connected and culturally enriched environment. By supporting every human in their journey with literacy, activism and the arts, the project becomes a catalyst for fostering a sense of unity and pride, rather than a traditional individualistic approach to learning and belonging.
