Resumo

I first heard about the community play concept in 1989 when I attended at a workshop at the Bread and Butter Popular Theatre Festival. The workshop was led by Dale Hamilton who told us about her experiences as a community play student in the Colway Theatre Trust in England, showed slides and a video, and talked about The Spirit of Shivaree, the project she was starting to produce in Eramosa County in Ontario. I found her accounts of the community play process fascinating, particularly the concern of these plays with history and the fact that often people got the chance to play their own ancestors, their great grandfathers, their grandmothers... What an appealing idea!
