Voices of Identity

About Voices of Identity

Voices of Identity is about how making theatre together can spark real change. Host Dani Belvin chats with artists, educators, and students who use devised theatre to explore identity, challenge systems, and build community. This podcast was created as part of a doctoral dissertation but balances academic rigor with an accessible format ultimately being a project about creativity, collaboration, and the power of storytelling to make sense of who we are...and who we want to become.
