Show Descriptions:
Clean Slate – What if we could build society from scratch? What would it look like? A team of student artists will explore a social justice topic and devise an online, interactive theatre experience. Part play, part social experiment, it’s a chance for the CCBC community to
collectively imagine a new world after COVID-19.
CCBC Presents: A Plague is an outdoor, socially distant yet immersive, devised play using texts from plagues and pandemics over the years, while juxtaposing it with current events. Students will engage with works such as Oedipus, Journal of the Plague Year and The Masque of the Red Death, transforming them into original scenes that also reflect our current experience with the pandemic.
