Shoebox Stories is a story-holding project where you stand in another person’s shoes by reading aloud their story, saying their words, and holding, for a moment, the weight that they carry.
Motus Theater will celebrate and recognize Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s fight for equality and civil rights this year by asking local leaders in Boulder County to stand in other people’s shoes. Shoebox Stories pairs Motus’ undocumented monologists with prominent Boulderites to amplify their stories and host a community conversation around immigration, the DACA + DREAMer programs and how, by standing in another’s shoes, we expand our understanding of what it means to be human.
Readers selected for the evening by the Center of the American West will be:
Kyle Furlong, Chi Psi, Chapter President
James Mcconnell - Sigma Nu, Former Chapter President and current Men's Health and Wellness Director
Adam Wenzlaff - Former president of Sigma Nu and current President of The Interfraternity Council on the Hill
Patty Limerick - Director of Center of the American West
The talkback following the presentation will be moderated by Patty Limerick, Faculty Director and Chair of the Board of the Center of the American West.
