"My North Hill" (v.1) will be presented tonight at the Ward 2 Council Meeting at 6:30 p.m. at Patterson Park Community Center. AND at Many Voices, One Akron on Saturday, October 20 from 2 to 4 p.m. at Chestnut Ridge Park (bringing North Hill to Kenmore!)
First rehearsal for “My North Hill,” a tréteau or “platform” play that condenses the action to one small stage (4’ x 8’) in 15 minutes. The script is being created from transcripts of four story circles facilitated with the International Institute at the Exchange House designed to create conversation through sharing stories of personal experience in order to more effectively manage racial tension and celebrate ethnic diversity. Since North Hill is one of the most diverse, mixed-income neighborhoods in the country, the piece will travel throughout various public spaces in North Hill in an effort to cross racial, ethnic, and economic barriers. As it tours, the play will change structure and content as audience members respond to the post-show dialogue. “My North Hill” is a living, breathing piece that aims to enhance civic engagement and participation by sharing, performing, and listening to the stories of each community.
