URGENT: Documentary Theater Project - Memories from Childhood

Documentary Theatre is a stylized form of theatre that wholly, or in part, uses pre-existing documentary material such as newspapers, government reports, or in this case interviews, as source material for the script, ideally without altering its wording. This is a unique opportunity for actors of all levels to not just act, but discover, document, develop and write a unique and personal piece of art to be presented as part of the Abu Dhabi Festival in association with ADMAF. The theme of the project is memory and the relationship to Mothers and Grandmothers.
