The Arts Council of Tamworth will be presenting Belonging and Othering, an exciting new stage production from the beheard.world artistic troupe, on September 14th at the Public House on Page Hill, featuring a collaboration of nine dancers/choreographers, three poets and two filmmakers who have created a piece where “belonging” and “othering” intersect, opening a window into underlying parts of tribalism and bias that keep us divided. The multi-media performance piece will screen seven local storytellers who have experienced being “othered.” The storytellers focus on racism, gender bias, immigration prejudice and LGBTQ issues. As each story is told, on a large 20’x20′ screen, dancers will perform solos to eight stories.
The performance will be held on Sunday, September 14th beginning at 7 PM. It will be staged at the Public House on Page Hill Pavilion, and tickets are by suggested donation. Doors will open at 6 PM for a cocktail social hour (cash bar) with light fare courtesy of the Public House on Page Hill. A $5 donation for light fare to the Pub on Page is suggested.
