Dear friends!

After many months of preparation, both exhilarating and exhausting, i am 
excited to share what i've been up to with a few other dedicated and 
talented souls... this premier of /Healing York Playback's/...

YOUR STORIES, YORK'S STORIES
comm-unity performance

Saturday
April 12
7:00 PM
William Penn Performing Arts Institute
101 College Avenue (Beaver Street Entrance)
York, PA

*THIS EVENT* features the stories that /you/ bring about your hometown 
-- the good, the bad and the ugly -- in a dynamic improvisational 
performance using Playback Theatre.  A spin-off of the Healing York 
initiative begun in 2006, the interactive performance will wake, shake 
and stimulate the many feelings and thoughts that we carry around our 
community's history of violence, racism and discrimination.

**ALL ARE WELCOME*** *to this event featuring numerous opportunities to 
hear and voice your own hopes and concerns about our past, present and 
future.  Expect pre-show video interviews, a graffiti wall, discussion 
circles and more!  Join us for this exciting step toward /comm-unity/!

*PLAYBACK THEATRE* is a simple improvisational form in which members of 
the audience tell stories and watch them played back on the spot. As the 
stories come alive on stage, audience and players become entwined in a 
community dialogue that is both deeply personal and powerfully universal.

*TICKETS* can be purchased online or at the door for a suggested 
donation of $5-15. Reserve your seat now at www.mycommunitytickets.com 
<http://mycommunitytickets.com/event/shop/item.asp?itemid=617>.

*/Your Stories, York's Stories/ is a joint production* of Healing York 
Playback, the William Penn Performing Arts Institute and Yorktowne Dance 
Theatre.

*SPONSORSHIP* is also provided by the York County Community Against 
Racism, York Friends Meeting, York Jewish Community Center Diversity 
Programs and the York City Human Relations Commission. The event is made 
possible in part with a grant from the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts.

    Come 'Yorkers' and 'foreigners.'
    Come 'elders' and 'youngins.'
    Come 'wealthy' and 'well-fared.'
    Come 'black,' 'white,' 'grey'and 'brown.'
    Come!  Come whoever you are.
