Presenter Profile
Armando Peniche
Guest Artist, Motus Theater
The mission of Motus Theater is to create original theater to facilitate dialogue on critical issues of our time. We aim to use the power of art to build alliances across diverse segments of our community and country.
Storytelling is at the heart of what makes us human. We focus on bringing marginalized voices or silenced histories to the stage. We support inclusion by expanding our audiences’ experiences of the variety of stories that make up our country. By using theater to learn and listen across the gaps of difference we weave tighter, stronger, and more connected communities. We hope you will gather around the fire with us: share your stories and learn new ones.
* We recently presented at the Colorado Thespians Teacher Conference. It seemed like a lot of teachers were impacted by our monologue. We would like to present at the conference to be able to reach students too. Would it be possible to do one presentation to the whole group? We have plenty of experience being the keynote speaker at many conferences.*
