Project: Humanity is a non-profit, Toronto-based theatre company focused on creating original and innovative socially-minded audience experiences through the arts. Their commitment to joining and advancing community conversations on issues of social importance has resulted in award-winning plays and social interventions.
Playwright Andrew Kushnir wrote and directed Towards Youth, a play constructed entirely from interviews and classroom footage captured by our research team. The play helps audiences better understand the struggles and ingenuity of young people in vastly different geopolitical sites, and further, how the adult world could turn differently towards youth; how our very democracy depends upon our capacity to think relationally and to engage civically in this increasingly politically polarized moment.
