Documentary Theater

Empathy is an invisible entity, as thin as air.

It helps us to see through the eyes of others, to “walk in their shoes,” to recognize that each of us are individuals with diverse and complex story lines.

A person can be born with empathy, or learn to flex it like a muscle. Empathy can also be expressed through word and art and action.

As part of the Eau Claire School District’s “Innovation Zone” strategy, students at Memorial High School are “acting out” their understanding of peer diversity in a performance and visual art form they call Documentary Theater.
