SUMMARY:Matchstick Theatre presents: Bitter Rose by Catherine Banks

SUMMARY:KAMP – Workshop Production
DESCRIPTION:KAMP – Workshop Production\nBradley & Williams in association with DaPoPo Theatre   \n& \n \n  \nDate: \nSPECIAL ADDITION (in partnership with the MAYWORKS Festival) \nApril 29-30 – 7.30pm Halifax Music Co-op\, 2164 Barrington St\nHalifax\, Nova Scotia Canada \nSession 1 (STAGES Fest): May 16\, 2017 – 2pm    VENUE: The Living Room \nSession 2 (STAGES Fest): May 27\, 2017 – 11am  VENUE: The Bus Stop Theatre \n(Note: one ticket gives access to ALL THREE sessions\, but you do not HAVE to attend all sessions to enjoy the experience.) \n  \nBox Office\nwww.tickethalifax.com \nTicket Prices: $25 (Three sessions included) \nCLICK HERE FOR SONGSPIEL TICKETS\n\nPLUS: An orchestral preview of a new Musical by Jamie Bradley and Garry Williams\nThe Nazis hated them because they were gay… but that’s what saved them\nKAMP Songspiel: An Orchestral Preview will highlight some of the original songs of this new musical and introduce the audience to the characters and their lives in the “Pink Barrack” as they plan and rehearse their own cabaret. \nThe Songspiel will feature a number of queer performers from the Halifax theatre community. The KAMP Cabaret Band will include musicians from the Halifax Music Co-Op\, under the Musical Direction of John Bogardus. \nA ticket to KAMP Songspiel gives you admission to two separate stage readings of the play presented during the STAGES Theatre Festival on May 16th and 27th! \nSo that’s THREE performances for one ticket. \n\nDescription:\nThe Nazis hated them because they were gay… but that’s what saved them. \nKAMP is a two-act musical that tells the story of a group of homosexual men\, interred in a Nazi concentration camp\, who use their artistic talents to secretly produce their own musical revue; a project that would give them hope to survive\, hold on to their identities\, and maintain their humanity. KAMP is based on historical truth. \nThis reading is presented in a unique way. \n  \nHow the ‘multiple readings’ thing works:\nAfter you have enjoyed\, experienced and lived the music at the songspiel… \nThe play receives a first reading in week one of the STAGES Theatre Festival\, then a second reading in week two after work has been done. \n‘KAMP’ (by Jamie Bradley & Garry Williams ) will be the second play script to receive this treatment. We initiated this process in 2016 and it proved successful and very useful to the writer. \nSession 1 will feature a staged-reading of this new work in-development followed by a moderated feedback session with the audience.  Over the course of ten days\, the playwrights will rework the piece (heeding OR ignoring the audience’s comments!) for a reading to take place the following week.\n \n \n\n

SUMMARY:Mug
DESCRIPTION:The Mayworks Halifax Festival presents \nA New Play by In My Own Voice (iMOVe) Arts Association\nMay 6th  7pm \nMay 7th 2pm \nMay 7th 7pm \n\nMug revolves around the Mug Shots of three formerly incarcerated people – photographs that span collectively almost 50 years of being in conflict with oneself and the Justice System. When a photograph is captured we often refer to it as ‘taking’ the photograph. This process of taking is encapsulated by the taking of the mug shot. However\, when a person is convicted of committing an offence\, the process of taking involves much more. When a person is incarcerated\, the liberty of free movement is taken. The person’s clothes are taken. The ability to make many of their own decisions is taken. Through Mug\, four persons relive their past by offering their stories and invite us all to take the challenge of giving. \n Featuring performances by JRDN\n \n\nCast & Crew:\nCast: Craig Kelly\, Lance Perry\, Darren Tynes and JRDN\n\nDirected by Sobaz Benjamin\nWith assistance from: Liam Petite\, Jacob Sampson\, Michael Tennyson and Jordan Metro\n\nBiographies\n\nSobaz Benjamin\, Founder and Executive Director of In My Own Voice (iMOVe) Arts Association\, is an accomplished and recognized film-director\, as well as a community advocate\, youth mentor\, program facilitator and educator.

Sobaz has also received a Humans Rights Award for his work with youth and directing awards from the National Film Board of Canada and the Canadian Academy of Cinema and Television. \nJordan Croucher (aka JRDN) is a Canadian R&B/Hip Hop recording artist raised in Halifax and Toronto. After playing on the St-FX basketball team and a year of professional basketball in France\, he began a career in music which has lead him to national and international recognition. \nCraig Kelly is currently remanded at the Central Nova Scotia Correctional Facility in Burnside. He is a 23 year old Caucasian male and has been in conflict with the justice system since he was thirteen – the age when his first mug shot was taken. Craig is awaiting sentencing. \nLance Perry is a 33 year old African Nova Scotian. He was born and raised in Uniacke Square and has been in conflict with the justice system since he was thirteen. He is currently under house arrest awaiting trial. He is the father of three children: a 12 month old boy and two daughters aged 6 and 10. He is determined to turn his life around\, and as he puts it\, “to be of some good use to his children.” \nLiam Petite is a Filmmaker/Editor and Photographer at Misfits&Masterminds Productions\, a Halifax-based film production company producing a mix of music videos\, promotional videos\, short and feature films. Liam worked with iMOVe to produce the video elements of Mug. \nJacob Sampson is a Writer and Performer.

Now\, standing on the same spot where I bought my first vodka cran\, underage\, there is thick gravel where years ago I felt linoleum\, softer\, sticking to the sole of my shoe.\nThe geography remains the same\, but the landscape changes\nI was there is an attempt to illuminate the psychogeography of a city that is often accused of being stuck in the past.

Trained as an oral historian and qualitative researcher\, she is particularly interested in how the political economy of the Maritimes has shaped the embodied experiences of working people.

SUMMARY:Creative Arts Therapy
DESCRIPTION:Creative Arts Therapy  \nLocation: The Bus Stop Theatre\nDate/time: Tuesday\, April 25th @ 6:30pm\nInstructor: Leena Alawaid\n \nLength of workshop: 1 HR\n\nThe creative arts therapy workshop is meant to introduce the basics of the therapeutic forms\, benefits\, accessibility an activities one can work with/on to improve their own practice and/or share with others. \nWorkshop Activities \n1) Blind-Folded Painting

 \nThe idea is to play music and have the participants paint blindly. This will help in reducing anxiety and de-stressing the participant. The activity will allow the artist to paint without an expectation or worry. \n2) Emotion Wheel \nThis activity is very common in art therapy practice and most instructors approach it differently. I like to approach this by having everyone trace an outline of their bodies. The concept is to mix colour you feel express a part of what you are feeling recently in life. The closer to the core\, the more you feel it and the farther away from the core\, the less it is affecting you. The hope is that eventually the artist will stop over thinking the situation and begin to paint purely from emotion. \n\nAbout the Instructor\n\nLeena Alawaid was born and raised in Halifax\, Nova Scotia and got to pursue her artistic studies and explorations at NSCAD University.  After graduation in 2014\, her main focus was to try and bring forth the concept of Creative Arts Therapy and draw attention to the process in her community. Leena is currently working together with several organizations in the community\, including Ronald McDonald House and the IWK\, where she offers art sessions to the children as a form of healing. Growing up in Halifax she got to experience first hand how much of a tight knit community the city has and she is thrilled to join the team here as Associate Producer at StART Fest Halifax. \n\nIf you have any questions please don’t hesitate to reach out! \n\nCheers\, \n\nYalitsa Riden\n\nCo-Producer\n\nStART Festival
