‘COVID Stories’ Staged Reading

Members of the community, the medical school and the University of Illinois Springfield will retell "COVID Stories" during a staged reading in the South Auditorium, 801 N. Rutledge. 

SIU’s Hope Cherry and UIS Theatre’s Professor Missy Thibodeaux-Thompson have collaborated with university staff, faculty and students, as well as Springfield-area residents to present narratives collected from within our communities. 

At the conclusion, a talk-back forum will be mediated by trauma-informed specialists from UIS and SIU School of Medicine. Desserts will be served in the Pearson Museum after the program.
