About Theater for Action: Through game playing, storytelling, movement, visual art, drama and creative writing, participants explore their own journeys and challenges. TFA's philosophy is that each person's struggle belongs to the community. When one individual suffers, the community suffers. When one individual mourns, the community mourns. And when one individual begins to heal, the community begins to heal.
