Learning About ‘H2-Uh-Oh’ at The Theater of Public Policy

With the exception of certain witches, everyone needs water and in the land of 10,000 lakes we’re lucky to have lots of it. But recent crises in places like Michigan, and even reports about Minnesota’s own water quality are raising a lot of questions and concerns. One of Minnesota’s foremost water experts, Dr. Deborah Swackhamer, Former Co-Director of the U of M’s Water Resources Center joins Theater of Public Policy to talk about the science and policy of H20.

Works Progress will be at the show as well with their nationally-renowned Water Bar. You can sip and compare water from various local sources. (Photo courtesy of Works Progress)

What is the show?

The interview based show is a powerful medium for exploring issues and bringing them to life using theater. All of the ideas and challenges brought up in this conversation serve as the inspiration for the improvised scenes to follow. The improvisers tasks are not to make light of the issues or mock the players involved. Instead, scenes make the previous conversation come to life with living, breathing characters in the situations described. It’s a show unlike any other.
