UAB Arts in Medicine Presents Theatre, A Caretaker of Grief
Dane Peterson, an interdisciplinary theatre artist with over 35 years of professional experience, is a beacon of transformation in the arts community. His roles as an actor, director, playwright, stage manager, producer, and educator, combined with his position as Director for ArtPlay at the UAB Center for the Arts, have enabled him to champion new works and transformative storytelling. His practice, which delves into grief, resilience, and the divine, is a testament to the power of courageous, heart-centered theatre. In this VMHM, we will discuss Peterson's original work, Primogeniture, a transformative journey that draws from his personal experience with illness and healing, creating spaces for reflection and connection.
