Rehearsals for “32 Stories Written by Kids” have been held at the False Creek Co-operative Housing communal space @falsecreeksouth 🏘️🤝 Co-op housing is so much more than an affordable way for folks to live in Vancouver. It can offer the space, tools and a supportive network to help us develop as individuals and as communities. Thank you False Creek Co-op for providing a home for this project and for helping to make a difference in the artistic development of youth in Vancouver 👏 Let’s hope that @kensimcity @vote4abc @cityofvancouver are looking for more opportunities to create more strong, caring Co-op communities that bring us all together and boost us all up 🤞💪🏙️

“Stories Written by Kids is about giving a voice to young people within a medium they may have had no previous experience in, and allowing them to express their ideas fully and without judgement. Showing these young people that what they say matters and that we care and want them to succeed.” - Leah Fong, Actor .

“I think the heart and the success of this project is that we take the students and their writing seriously. No matter what it is. We present it genuinely and with full commitment.” - Laura McLean, Director .

DIRECTING WORKSHOP 🎭📣 This morning we rehearsed each of the kids’ plays for them in small groups and then got them to offer their ideas on sound, lighting, props, costumes and acting choices. We’ll take their direction back to rehearsals for a couple weeks, then return to this stage to present all 32 plays for the whole school on May 30th!

Stories Written By Kids is BACK! These 32 original short plays have been written by students from Strathcona Elementary. That's right - we went for a double dip! Tickets available NOW for the community performance June 8th, at The Cultch Historic Theatre. To reserve your seat, get details, and more, click the link in our bio. 🎟️
