THE TRIBES PROJECT RETURNS TO CORVALLIS!
The Tribes Project – A student forum for frank and dramatic exploration
of race
Performing at the OSU LaSelles Stewart Center on Sunday, April 7 at 7pm
Suggested donation requested: $5 adult, $3 student.
When a group of high schools students put their honest energy into
challenging and questioning our society’s racial attitudes and behavior,
the results are provocative. This is the Tribes Project, a
multicultural acting troupe returning to Corvallis for a community show
on Sunday, April 7 at 7PM at the OSU LaSelles Stewart Center on Western
Boulevard. The troupe will also perform two shows on Monday, April 8 at
Corvallis High School at 9am and at Linn Benton Community College at
noon.
In their sixth season, the Seattle-based Tribes Project employs
hard-hitting dialogue, world music, choreography and improv to present a
powerful, emotionally engaging dramatic performance. Through a ten-week
process of interactive rehearsal and discussion, the Tribes cast creates
a performance that is definitively unique, yet universal. Performances
have consistently engaged and evoked tremendous response from audiences
of all ages and backgrounds.
This year’s Tribes Project performance is cosponsored by the OSU Office
of Multicultural Affairs, the Corvallis Martin Luther King Jr.
Commission, Linn Benton Community College and the Youth Nonviolence
Education Project of the Ahimsa Sanctuary Foundation. The troupe
performed last year at the Corvallis Odd Fellows Hall and at Jefferson
High School in Portland.
"The Tribes Project was created to provide a national model for
discussing and presenting sensitive issues of race through the eyes and
ears of young people who are often left without a forum for truthful
interaction," said Tribes director J. Paul Preseault. "This year’s tour
gives us a very special opportunity to discuss issues which affect and
impact most of our communities." Over the past three years Tribes
performances have been presented to over 12,000 people. More
