Young boys are making headlines these days, and the reasons aren't that positive. Fewer boys are enrolling in college, many are struggling with isolation and addiction, and there are problematic messages out there telling boys to be tough and "suck it up". What is the manosphere, and how do parents differentiate between positive and negative online spaces? What impact may the world have on our sons as they move through adolescence? Join Dad Guild and gender expert Kate Mangino for this town hall-style discussion.
Are you a creative type who enjoys sculpting (or who thinks you might?!)
Masks are all about CHARACTER; they can be used to create, exaggerate, or even hide a character. In our upcoming production of The Caucasian Chalk Circle, all of the actors will be using original "half-masks" to help define their characters.
SO, we're going to be setting up a Maskmaking Workshop, starting in mid-January, where together we will sculpt, cast, and paint more than twenty masks! Working from basic designs, the features of each character will be built with clay over existing plaster life-casts, covered with papier maché, painted, and readied for actors to wear.
Prepare yourself for a fun (and often-messy) whirlwind of fabrication as we help to create all the inhabitants for the onstage world of this play.
