SUMMARY:Captive Audience: The COVID Show
DESCRIPTION:The voices of older adults living in western Massachusetts form
  the core of this performance experience that reflects the drama\, the con
 flict\, the inexplicable\, and the reality of adapting to constant change 
 during the COVID-19 pandemic.\n\nThese first-person stories—sometimes po
 ignant or sad\, sometimes humorous or joyful—are supplemented by narrati
 ves from members of the Medical Reserve Corps and those who worked in hosp
 itals\, clinics\, and vaccination sites. Together\, the stories offer rich
  insights—and some surprises—into how those of us in rural Massachuset
 ts navigated the unknown territory of a global public health crisis.\n\nA 
 talk-back after the reading will provide an opportunity for the audience t
 o respond to the production and contribute their insights towards the furt
 her development of the project.\n\nThis performance is co-sponsored by Gre
 enfield Community College’s Department of Community Engagement and the F
 ranklin Medical Reserve Corps. This program is supported in part by a gran
 t from the Buckland\, Deerfield\, Greenfield\, and Sunderland local cultur
 al councils\, local agencies which are supported by the Mass Cultural Coun
 cil\, a state agency.\n\nThe Franklin Medical Reserve Corps partnered with
  Greenfield Community College’s Department of Community Engagement to in
 terview and record the oral histories of 27 older adults in our area. Thes
 e recordings are archived in Digital Commonwealth\, a digital archive mana
 ged by the Boston Public Library.
