Different Strokes! Performing Arts Collective

Different Strokes! Performing Arts Collective Making Theatre, Building Community, Facilitating Awareness,Changing The World One Play At A Time. Making Theatre That Makes A Difference

"If the purpose of the arts is, as theorist Viktor Shlovsky once wrote, to “make the stone stony,” to “make objects unfamiliar” that over time have become invisible, Different Strokes! Performing Arts Collective has made this the centerpiece of their work as it intersects with race, gender, and sexuality. Their work bends spectators’ perceptions just enough that they are able to see the unexamined

assumptions that underlie daily life". - Scott Walters for American Theatre Magazine

Tonight your last chance to see our staged reading of the classic A RAISIN IN THE SUN. We have a phenomenal cast. You don’t want to miss this chance!

The Younger family’s struggle to claim their piece of the American Dream mirrors the experiences of many families today. Economic hardship and systemic racism continue to limit opportunities for Black Americans. Critics note that the play’s exploration of deferred dreams and the fight for dignity resonates as strongly now as it did in 1959, when the play was written.
