“They are all so honest…the seniors, when they tell their story and the actors, when they perform them.” - First impression of Red Threads playback performance by a Villa Cabrini resident
Four years of regular performances at Villa Cabrini and
going strong! Thanks to funding from
Manitoba Community Services Council, LIFT and Healthy Together the relationship between the troupe and
seniors is blooming. The warmth of the
seniors has given the troupe safe ground to explore the storytelling of
playback and take risks to grow artistically.
In the fall, we are planning evening performances so the residents can
invite family and friends to dinner and theatre.
The invitation to dinner and theater will also be extended
to other seniors’ residences in the area.
