STORY CIRCLES

Picture
A "story circle" is a chance for a community to share stories, learn about one another and to talk about a certain theme.

SISU is in the Heart 
is a play about my family, but it is also about the stories and lives of other Finnish American families. During community story circles, I will lead the groups in a variety of activities to provoke conversations about their own ancestry and ask questions about what it means to be connected to their Finnish roots. The stories (or parts of stories) that people share may find their way into the play that I am writing or inspire characters or scenes. SISU is in the Heart is not intended to be  a documentary, but instead a fictional play that has the flavor of the stories and memories that are shared.
