The Art of Care Conceived and Directed by Derek Goldman October 31 - November 24, 2024
PRODUCED IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE LABORATORY FOR GLOBAL PERFORMANCE AND POLITICS AT GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY AND DEVELOPED IN COLLABORATION WITH THE GLOBAL HEALTH INSTITUTE; SCHOOL OF HEALTH; SCHOOL OF NURSING; MEDSTAR HEALTH, AND THE MEDICAL HUMANITIES INITIATIVE AT GEORGETOWN UNIVERSITY
One of the most profound experiences we all share is how we care for, and are cared for by, others. The Art of Care is an innovative world premiere theatrical event exploring this common thread of our humanity at a time in our world when care often feels in short supply. Featuring an ensemble of all-star DC performers sharing from their own deeply personal experiences, this uplifting and interactive genre-breaking devised play combines movement, music, and multimedia with the insights of caregivers, medical professionals, policymakers, and everyday citizens, and courageously invites us all into the performers’ own vulnerable personal worlds while deepening our understanding of our own.
