Video Viewing Party—GCC Brazil
For four straight years, UM professor Ashley Lucas, director of the Prison Creative Arts Project (PCAP), has led the GCC Brazil—Theatre and Incarceration program to Rio de Janeiro, where UM students become participant observers in theater work not only in prisons but in underprivileged neighborhoods and hospitals. They learn about what theater can accomplish beyond entertainment in non-traditional settings and why people engage in performance practices in these challenging contexts.
Join us on Thursday, November 17 to celebrate PCAP’s work as we screen the two brief videos that were created this summer in Brazil when a Michigan News crew followed Ashley and her UM students around Rio. Enjoy savory and sweet Brazilian delicacies, and speak with Ashley and with program advisor Rebecca Griffin about applying for GCC Brazil—Theatre and Incarceration, which will run again in 2017.
This event is part of International Education Week at Michigan. Use #MGoIEW
