Our final production, presented in May and June will be an original play made possible by a large grant from the the Inland Empire’s Creative Corps Development Project. Work has already begun on this innovative yearlong theatre project to be devised by a collective of Inland Empire actors, designers, writers and researchers.

This innovative theatre event will address the many complex layers in the history of Section 14, a one-square-mile tract in downtown Palm Springs. In the mid-sixties the homes of Latino, Black, and other families were bulldozed and burned to make way for development. Green Room’s new play will tell the story by honoring the diverse perspectives of the Agua Caliente Band, the City of Palm Springs, state and national government, and the survivors of the Section 14 neighorhood.
