UTH INK

Gwaandak Theatre brought the Uth Ink: Playwright in the Community project to Whitehorse, in partnership with CBC North, Playwrights Guild of Canada and [murmur]. Whitehorse youth completed 10 short plays inspired by real places in their community. After a workshop with a professional playwright, youth created their plays, recorded them in CBC Yukon studios, posted them online and developed them into site-specific theatre installations marked by green Uth Ink signs. We held a public launch at Baked Café and plays aired on CBC.
