Stages is an inclusive and collaborative production that welcomes artists of all forms—whether your medium is dance, music, song, visual art, or any other mode of creative expression. This production invites participants from across the Department of Theatre and Dance and the broader Ball State community to bring their unique voices and perspectives to the stage. In Stages, cast members will have the opportunity to devise, share stories and experiences, and blend their talents with those of their peers. The goal is to create a rich tapestry of expression that celebrates the diversity of human experience and explores the impacts of recent government legislation.
Rooted in the exploration of identity and contemporary social issues, Stages delves into themes that impact the lives of individuals who may feel on the margins and touches on topics such as gender, race, sexuality, and societal expectations. It is a space where lived experiences—whether deeply personal or reflective of larger contemporary social issues—are brought to light, allowing for dialogue and connection through art. Stages aims to create a welcoming environment where every participant can share stories and transform the stage into a space of belonging, understanding, and shared humanity. This is your Stage—a place to be seen, heard, and valued.Tickets
Tickets are available through the College of Fine Arts Box Office located at Sursa Hall in person, by phone at 765-285-8749, or online.

Human Library at Minnetrista 1pm to 4pm @ Minnetrista Cultural Center Oakhurst Home 1200 N Minnetrista Pkwy
Cost: Free Ages: 18+ The Human Library® is a safe place for serious conversations about often difficult and perhaps sensitive topics and allows participants to explore and examine their own conscious or unconscious bias. The Oakhurst home at Minnetrista is a beautiful and historic location for this impactful event.
At a Human Library® our Books are people who are on loan to Readers (YOU!). Books have lived experiences that reflect stereotyping and bias in our society and are ready to not just tell a story but to engage in a conversation with you. They expect and appreciate difficult questions that lead to greater understanding. Every Book on our Bookshelf has experienced stereotyping, stigma or challenges and marginalization due to their lifestyle, profession, diagnosis, belief, disability, or social status, to name a few.
At the Human Library® we invite you to examine and explore the topics on our Bookshelf and perhaps meet your own prejudice or better understand the life of one who experiences stigmas and stereotypes.
Each Book checkout is for a half hour dialogue. Check out 1 or as many Books as you have time for. The last check out is at 3:30 p.m.
Always FREE, this is a terrific learning opportunity and you will thank yourself for making the time to come!
The Oakhurst Experience will be closed on April 27, but the Oakhurst home will be open for the Human Library Project event from 1-4 p.m.
