Refuge Show Run
As we continue to thoughtfully address the content of each production, consider the emotional & mental health of our actors, and listen to the feedback of our patrons, Curious will include post-show or panel discussions once a week for this production run of REFUGE. We will be referring to these events as Social Justice Saturdays, where we will be bringing in local organizations to join the discussion at Curious.
If your tickets are for a night that does not have a talkback, we strongly encourage to return to the theatre to participate! Please note that you will be asked to provide vaccination proof and wear a mask.
