Project: Humanity

Project: Humanity has become one of the country’s leading developers of Verbatim Theatre, a journalistic form of theatre that involves transforming original interview transcripts into ‘live documentaries’ for audiences. The original work we create explores the art of listening. Additionally, through our PH Youth stream of practice, PH creates opportunities for young people to express themselves creatively, explore social issues using drama, and break down social barriers in their communities. We create a safe space and nurture meaningful relationships with participants through our style of group facilitation and our commitment to showing up regularly. In our artmaking and our engagement with communities, we are guided by the following core beliefs: • We believe theatre is a powerful way to bring together disconnected groups. • We believe theatre can help people listen better and become more compassionate. • We believe theatre can inspire active citizenship and lead to real change.
