About the Group:
The Conciliation Project works to promote, through active and challenging dramatic work, open and honest dialogue about racism in America in order to repair its damaging legacy. As a social justice theatre company, the ultimate goal is individual and community transformation. Their dramatic works challenge audiences to rethink their beliefs and prejudices by:
- Presenting previously hidden historical accounts;
- Encouraging candid conversations, rather than tired rhetoric;
- Replacing misconceptions with genuine understanding and acceptance, and;
- Igniting dialogues that have been stifled and silenced by political correctness, misunderstandings, inaccurate historical accounts and fear.
Current Projects:
TCP productions illuminate the distortions of America’s racial history and provide an honest interrogation, while including marginalized, under-represented and unheard voices. Our engagements are geared toward businesses, organizations, schools, and communities to help in the process of eliminating racial and cultural stereotypes and the movement toward a more just and equal world.
The “Original Works Series” is a set of six plays specifically geared towards our mission. The “Community Collaboration Series” partners the mission of community groups with the mission of TCP. Our productions can be used in a number of ways including: workshops, dialogue sessions, performances, lectures, and residencies.
