The Verbatim Salon: a Project of the American Playwriting Foundation

The Verbatim Salon is a monthly performance series where actors bring real, anonymized immigration stories to life using in-ear verbatim technique. Each piece is crafted from interviews conducted with individuals navigating the U.S. immigration system.

Each month, rather than paying admission, audiences will be encouraged to donate to a rotating list of organizations supporting immigrants and refugees with a range of services.
