Project Finding is an applied theatre performance that is aimed at the custodial parents of youths.  At the same time giving them a platform for the exploration of solutions.

In Project Finding, the use of Playback Forum Theatre will help parents to seek alternatives on how to communicate effectively with their children.


WE WILL PERFORM THE STORIES OF OUR PARTICIPANTS SPONTANEOUSLY!

Through the use of the Playback Forum Theatre, it gives these parents a chance to empathize with the struggles their child/children had face.

There will be 1 performance for every 4 months.  Each performance would revolve around a certain theme that allows the custodial parents to explore ways on how to  communicate more effectively with their children.  Our targeted participants are Low-SES custodial parents.
