What is The TE’A Project?
TE’A (pronounced tay-ah) stands for Theatre Engagement and Action. A collaborative endeavor between Radha Productions and Intersections International www.intersectionsinternational.org, The TE’A Project uses interactive theatre to inspire young people to build peace by crossing the barriers of race, class, culture and religion in America’s communities.
TE’A combines story collection, theatrical performance, and facilitated dialogue in a process that makes it possible for people to engage imaginatively with the barriers of social and cultural differences that divide us. The process combines time-tested techniques of interactive, documentary-style theatre with the Insight Approach - a new breakthrough in the theory and practice of conflict resolution.
The TE’A Project plans to operate in communities across the United States and abroad, creating companies of talented young artists committed to dedicating their artistic gifts to the challenge of building peace in their communities and employing cutting-edge developments in the theory and practice of conflict resolution to create high quality, documentary-style performance pieces.
Under the Veil: Being Muslim (and non-Muslim) in America, post 9/11 is the premiere presentation of The TE’A Project and was written and developed by the TE’A Company/NYC in 2009.
