#CivilDebates Arts Boards

Civil Debates 1Welcome to Debate Day #2 – Arts Boards

WHEN: Tonight: Doors @ 7pm, debate @ 7.30pm

WHERE: Right next to the The Theatre Centre Pop-Up, 1093 Queen St. West, at Dovercourt in the Thrush Holmes Gallery

HOW TO PARTICIPATE: Be sure to pick up your poker chips on the way in. You’ll be asked to vote on your position as you enter with one chip, the 2nd chip will buy you 60 seconds of speaking time to either make a statement or ask a question, and the 3rd chip will be used as you vote on your position as you leave. Check back here later for the results of the two votes.

*NOTE: We’ve moved into a larger space right next door to the Pop-Up to make sure everyone can get in.

PWYC at the door. No RSVP required.

This evening Gideon Arthurs, Franco Boni, Brendan Healy & Jini Stolk will debate the resolution:

Be it resolved that Boards of Directors have the right and responsibility to overrule the Artistic Direction of a theatre company.
