MACRO Digital Project

We are looking for imaginative theatre (and theatre adjacent) artists to help us with our next project: the MACRO DIGITALS. Last year we had a great time working solo on our Micro Digitals series, and this year we're doing it again, but BIGGER! Where the Micros had 20 artists working on 20 tiny digital projects, the MACROS will bring together 20 collaborators to create one giant digital/in-person hybrid project!

Have a great idea? Want to help a great idea come to fruition? We're looking for designers, performers, writers and digital artists of all kinds to come together in February and March to create a giant digital project that takes place in-person at Alderney Landing and online March 22nd to 27th.

Dialogues for the Vaccine Hesitant...
​...and Those Who Love Them 

Inspired by Boca del Lupo's Plays2Perform@Home project, Dialogues for the Vaccine Hesitant (and Those Who Love Them) is a series of free digital books and podcasts meant as practice dialogues for people who might find themselves in any number of difficult conversations, especially as folks gather for the holidays.

As part of the series, Mary-Colin Chisholm has written BUY WHY? which navigates the issues that parents and guardians are facing with children aged 5-11 when it comes to getting the vaccine. 

We are so pleased to have helped bring BUT WHY? to life as a podcast, featuring Dartmouth’s own James MacLean, the charming Tindra Johnson, and Mary-Colin herself as Sparkles the cat! Catch Mary-Colin chatting with Boca’s Sherry J Yoon and child psychologist Dr. Elizabeth McLaughlin following the podcast.
