Program Description
Mid FEBRUARY-JUNE 2024 Junebug is a 12-year-old African American boy in the 1960’s South who raises his voice to confront the inequities of school integration. This play for young people resonates with the voice in each of us to fight against injustice. “...Voice..." is a multimedia play exploring the music, images, and spirit of mid-century America while celebrating the courage and resilience of everyday Americans of the Civil Rights Movement. In both casting practices and subject matter, Pushcart Players provides a welcoming and affirming environment. Teaching artists and performers reflect the diversity of our constituents, providing identification and a natural significance to these young learners. Subject matter addresses a broad range of inclusive curriculum: history, literature, world-culture, social emotional learning, values clarification, civics, anti-racism, and anti-bullying. With all in-person performances, assessment occurs with a post-production question and answer session.
