July 27, Sunday
10:00am—1:00pm
The day began with a three hour theatre workshop that I led using the techniques of Augusto Boal and others that I have learned over the years. The participants in the theater workshop were primarily "youth" [including an older man from Aceh was a filmmaker]. For 3 hours in an open-air traditional Indonesian setting we danced, stretched, played, improvized, got to know one another in new embodied ways, laughed and opened our imaginations! The workshop ended with a series of human sculptures/photographs created by participants to show the past, present and future of two local issues chosen by the group: labor organizing and gay-bashing.

2:00—3:30p Sunday
Lunch with a Sacred Heart Sister who was trained in the Philippines and who was very supportive of LGBT issues and of women priests.
