HOPE 612
Written about their experiences growing up in Minneapolis, Hope 612 is focused on 3 areas the playwrights identified as the most critical in their lives; racism, fentanyl abuse, and police brutality. Each character is based on their own experiences and the power of their words is clear. Hope 612 opens conversations about important topics while focusing on hope and the power that comes with using your voice.
About Be That Neighbor
Be That Neighbor Theatre (formerly Mill City Players) is the Youth Theatre program of Be That Neighbor, a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization with a mission to connect, convene and support our neighbors. The program began in 2016 with 12 students from the Cedar Riverside neighborhood and 12 young people who were experiencing homelessness. The first 2 sessions were held in partnership with the Guthrie. All of the actors ‘graduated’ to college or to full-time jobs. Hope 612 is written by five alumni of that program.
This is a staged reading of this new work. All tickets will be Pay What You Can, with 50% of the proceeds going to support the future of this youth theatre program.
