Seeds of Change with Verbal Gymnastics (Online Special Program)

About this event

Has the practice of farming or gardening from seed inspired change in your life or others? Whether to reconnect with nature, prepare for uncertain times, or even to cultivate plants that hold significant cultural importance, we invite you online to share your story with Verbal Gymnastics through the use of live interactive storytelling called Playback Theatre. Your stories of seed planting, nurturing, and harvesting will be heard and played back to you through acting, music, and movement! Come on back to be a part of this unique and transformative online experience.
