The MA in Applied Theatre program hosts their weekly virtual community event, where students and faculty come together to address specific topics and possible projects. 

This week's session includes:

  • Project: Storytelling and Virtual Meetups for Seniors
    • Facilitated by Margo Brookes
    • How might we bring our practice to seniors during this time?  
  • Discussion: Screen Time and Mental Health in the New Virtual Landscape 
    • Facilitated by Claro de los Reyes
    • How do we navigate the contradiction between offering virtual services/events and the mental health effects of too much screen time?
  • Discussion: Video Games, Role Play, and Applied Theatre
    • Facilitated by Michael Wilson
    • What might applied theatre practitioners learn from video games and online role play games in our remote and virtual work during this time? What opportunities do those forms offer us?
