Some members of the cast of OutLOUD's performance of Sojourner Truth
What We Do Staten Island OutLOUD is a community dialogue and performance project...
We present an ongoing series of grass-roots readings of world classics, historic documents, interfaith texts and other compelling works. Most of our events are intimate participatory readings, some are large staged performances with music and dance.
We meet in historic sites, nature preserves, delis, bookshops, museums, galleries, public housing projects, on the beach, on trains & on the Ferry, in libraries, parks & playgrounds, cafes, community centers, and in churches, temples, mosques and synagogues.
Our events draw diverse, intergenerational participants.
We also offer a variety of programs that are geared to youth and teens - We're nurturing a new generation of readers and writers.
We're all volunteers and we operate on a shoestring. Our events are free, and open to the public.
To get involved, all you have to do is show up!
