Last week, we sat down with Skye O'neal Adrian, LGBTQ youth advocate and actor with the Ali Forney Center troupe. See what he had to say about his experiences of making change through theatre.

Last night, we gathered at La MaMa ETC for not one, but TWO brand new interactive plays by the Concrete Justice and Sunset Park troupes! The actors tackled everything from gentrification, eviction, and homesteading to racism, violence, and bullying in schools.

“Because things are the way they are, things will not stay the way they are.” – Brecht 

Build power to affect change. The whole week was based around this.

I cannot remember the last time I went to bed at 9pm. That's what happened last night, the first night of this weeklong training.
