These Streets Play

These Streets is an original piece of theatre based on over 40 interviews with the people who lived it. These Streets is a gritty, funny, and powerful fictional story where the characters’ past and present lives collide with their past and present music, played and sung by the performers and a live band. These Streets was performed at ACT Theatre between Feb 21 – Mar 7, 2013.
