Pease Park Conservancy and Salvage Vanguard Theater present
Public Property
by Laura Neill
directed by Braxton Rae
with support from Hyde Park Theatre
A ninety-minute play, written specifically to be performed in Live Oak Meadow Public Property is a play follows the stories of twenty-one park-goers and their relationships to the past, present, and future of the park. It will be performed by an ensemble of actors who represent the many histories of Texas.
Public Property: that's what a park technically is. But everyone who spends time at the park has their own individual story of that place, a belief that this land belongs to them. When part of the meadow is closed down, what happens to all the overlapping stories that have been interrupted?
We invite you to pack a picnic (not glass please) and join us in collectively reflecting upon the complex histories of Austin against the backdrop of Live Oak Meadow. Please come vaxxed with a mask on hand. Chairs are provided; however you are welcome to bring your own lawn chair or blanket.
This event is free and open to the public. All donations will be split between the Indigenous Culture Institute and Austin Justice Coalition.
Accessibility services provided upon request in registration process.

Public Property was developed with support from ScriptWorks Groundwork Grant and Revision Resource funding. Find more information about ScriptWorks at www.scriptworks.org.
