Have You Tried This?
December 2020
January, February & March 2021
Maybe you’ve tried something similar - but HAVE YOU TRIED THIS? You've heard that person tell a story but have you heard them improvise a speech? Impress you with a skill you didn't know they had? Share their hidden musical proficiency for the accordion? Rant and rave about why cats are far superior than dogs?
Gwaandak Theatre was excited to work alongside partners, sponsors, and organizations to curate monthly evenings of storytelling, knowledge sharing, and community as we stretched the borders of our collective comfort zones.
