Pangea will hold a series of Story Circles and create a four-day play/performance festival with underserved communities on East Lake Street. Written and oral surveys from participants and audiences will both inform how the program was effective in giving voice to participants and what impact the work had on larger audience. 2: By creating work with eight artists along Lake Street, the Story Circles Project will bring new artists and new audiences to Pangea. Pangea will make new connections with artists as we ask to expand our artist roster for The Story Circles Project and we will see new audiences follow those artists into the story circles and the final performances.
