Please fill out the information form here.

Your piece can be a personal story, reflection, or creative response. It does not need to be memorized word-for-word —authenticity is more important than polish. 

Suggested Prompts 

• First Connection: Describe the first time you joined a social media platform. What did it feel like? 

• Highlight Reel: Talk about a moment when you posted something that didn’t reflect what was really going on in your life. 

• The Scroll: Share an experience when you lost time while scrolling — what did you notice, feel, or miss? 

• Comparison Trap: Describe a time when comparing yourself online affected your self-image or emotions. 

• Digital Silence: Reflect on a moment you deleted an app, took a break, or chose to disconnect. What shifted? 

• Message Received: Tell the story of a powerful text, DM, or post that changed you (for better or worse). 

• Connection Beyond the Screen: Share a time when social media helped you build a real, lasting connection. Tips • Speak in your own voice — be honest and personal. 

• Keep it short (1–2 minutes). • Don’t stress about memorization; notes are fine. 

• Feel free to weave in movement, gesture, or even sound if you’re inspired

 

Rehearsals will begin on October 26th for performances December 3-7
