Student Conversation: Health, Safety and Wellbeing

What does safety look like in your theater? What would you like it to look like? In this community conversation with teaching artists Brianna Graham and Andre Shoals, we’ll discuss safety, health, and wellbeing for students. We’ll talk about the current state of the pandemic, setting boundaries, and healthy ways to deal with the difficult situations that can arise in the theater.
