Community Theater Troupe

Brings Ghosts of Labor Organizers’ Past to Stage

Explores the Roots of Current Labor Issues through Organic Theater

Labor History is rarely included in school curriculum, even at the college level. Yet in this current economic crisis, with workers suffering unimaginable struggles, we can all benefit from understanding the history of working people and the strategies they employed in our history to overcome hardship. Through our unique form of Organic Theater, the Romero Troupe will highlight these important issues in their most recent production.

WHAT: We Shall Not Be Moved, a new play about the history of struggles of working people and their connection to today’s economic crisis. Directed by University of Colorado at Denver labor historian, Jim Walsh.

WHEN and WHERE: Friday April 10 @ 7:30 PM (Live music begins at 7:00)

WHO: The Romero Theater Troupe www.romerotroupe.org

WHY: The Romero Troupe believes in the power of theater to create positive social change and to use history to highlight struggles today for dignity and social justice.
