All are welcome: Theatre CHS repurposes immigrants’ poetry, prose for unprecedented play


“Dreaming America: A Devised Theater Performance” will take place at Charlottesville High School Black Box Theater for one night only on Tuesday, September 18 at 7pm as part of Welcoming Week. A panel discussion with poetry book editor Seth Michelson will follow. While free, the event will offer donation opportunities to benefit the Capital Area Immigrants’ Rights Coalition.
