Stepping Out – Stories of challenge, change, and possibility. (March 13th and 14th 2021)
A continuation of the story sharing event and verbatim performance, that were popular elements in the ‘A Woman’s Place’ mini festival, Stepping Out featured a morning-tea story sharing event on the Saturday, for 25 women, followed the next day by a performed reading of selected stories, from the morning tea. Over 24 hours, theatre makers Carole Patullo and Jane Bayly transcribed and edited the stories, then with an intergenerational cast, including young women from the Dreamhouse ensemble, professional actors and community members, present a theatrical reading to a live audience.
