Global Arts Corps uses the transformative power of theatre and storytelling to disrupt cycles of vengeance, promote cross-cultural dialogue, and create spaces to heal intergenerational trauma.

From its inception, GAC, a 501(c)(3) organization, has brought together performing artists from opposite sides of cultural, religious, national and racial divides to create theatrical platforms for people to hear stories of those they have learned to hate and fear. Our previous project—See You Yesterday—shifted this focus, and instead of crossing borders, crossed generations. Young Cambodian circus performers used their extraordinary physical skills and imagination to visit the past and create a platform to break the silence shrouding them and their elders. These experiences have brought us to our current focus.
