Cardboard Stories at Clear Space Theatre

In collaboration with the Immanuel Shelter in Rehoboth Beach, this play pulls homelessness to the forefront. An original piece created for the nonprofit Pinellas County Coalition for the Homeless by Watkins and Penn, CARDBOARD STORIES tells the tale of the different worlds of homelessness and how it affects all of us.

Allie's story: The first of a four-part series focuses on a woman who aged out of foster care, gave birth to a baby girl and became homeless in Williams Park. There she meets Hope, a college student who helps her begin to see her hardships as opportunities. Can Allie overcome her seemingly insurmountable odds or will the struggle of homelessness leave her trapped in a cycle of victimization and despair?
