Artists With Convictions

All writers know the power of words -- to transform, to inspire, to change a life. For writers with some extra time and looking to have a real impact, the Unusual Suspects Theater Company is looking for volunteers for their Spring cycle of shows.

This organization works with young men and women in detention camps and group homes. Volunteer artists work with these youth doing writing excercises, improv acting, and just showing up to help steer, mentor, and guide these young people to write and perform an original piece of theater. The writing is surprising, the effect is transformative, and the experience is both trying and exhilerating.

Email or call now to find out how to become involved. Either as a writing or acting volunteer, or even just getting on their mailing list to come to see these incredible shows.
