Reflecting on Borderlands Theater's Westside Stories and the Value of Reenacting History
Borderlands Theater is proud to announce the launch of a video archive featuring the theatrical production Westside Stories. This archive comprises 14 edited viedeos, each showcasing a unique story from the play, Westside Stories. These videos will be accessible online, free of charge, to educators and the general public alike.
In addition, we will be hosting a moderated panel discussion featuring artists and educators. This panel will delve into the process of transforming oral history into a community-based theatrical festival. Furthermore, it will explore the educational value of these types of projects.
