Iqaluit teenage actors tackle bullying

Up-and-coming thespians will perform an interactive play this weekend in Iqaluit, as part of a local theatre group’s program to create social change through actions on stage.

Qaggiq Theatre Company hosted a six-day workshop with teens in Iqaluit this week, which developed several short plays based on the teens’ experience of bullying and youth violence.

The performance will begin at 2 p.m. at the high school. Entry is free, and audience participation is encouraged.
