Cornerstone Theater Company is developing a play about Highland Park, inspired by significant changes in the neighborhood, and by the establishment of the Oxy Arts Community Center on York Blvd. Over the summer, Cornerstone will be hosting storytelling sessions to help determine what a Highland Park community play should be. They will present a play, inspired by and starring Highland Park residents, in the Fall.
Highland Park community members are invited to participate in a conversation with playwright Mark Valdez to help Cornerstone Theater write a new, original play about this vital Northeast Los Angeles community.
