Uncommon Partnerships

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Theatre, Performance and Change

Abstract

The theory of change that I describe here is grounded in partnerships between community-informed artists, people adversely affected by the issue in question, and professionals from other relevant disciplines, in order to concretely overcome the social inequity that brings them together.

The best collaborations emerge from recognition of some kind of common grounding between uncommon partners.
