Stages: Cancer and the Arts

Drama and Health Care Issues

A strong current through all of our work has been to use drama and reader's theatre as a vehicle to make issues more evident.  Plays such as Vonnegut's Fortitude, Churchill's A Number and Coble's The Machine Stops have been performed for participants at our summer seminars as well as in the community.
