SCARED COOL...
All congratulations go to ACA Graduate Kallista Kaval who has just returned from 3 months in Timor Leste. Kallista created and directed, Scared Cool, a verbatim theatre project with a cast of conflict-affected youth who grew exponentially in confidence and courage throughout the process. This style of theatre can be so transformative for all involved and we applaud Kallista’s commitment and resolve to make a difference within this Timorese community.
