A Dove's Song: Re-Membering The Way Home - A Playback Theater Performance

May 16th from 2:00 to 5:00 PM in Oceanside California.

Free event. Donations accepted. 

Creating & spreading awareness & support for indigenous communities and those impacted by Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and People (#MMIW/P) using playback theater and sound healing.

What is Playback Theater?

Playback Theater takes stories from the audience members who are invited to share moments, memories, and reflections in response to a theme. The actors skilled in the art of listening play back through improvisation the stories that were shared, creating a collective healing experience.

What is A Dove's Song?

"Stories carry memory. Re-Membering carries truth. Witnessing brings healing..." 

For 18 days, 14-year old Emily Pike had been missing...

On Valentine's Day in 2025, in garbage bags on a lonely desert road, Emily was discovered. 

A Dove’s Song is a powerful poem written by R Strongbow inspired by the tragic story of 14-year old Emily Pike, a member of the San Carlos Apache Tribe. This event, A Dove's Song: Re-Membering The Way Home is dedicated to honoring the lives of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and People (#MMIWP).

A Dove’s Song is an invitation to honor lives impacted by trauma and participate in a collective movement to transform trauma into healing and awareness.

We invite you to join us for a powerful playback theater experience. In a supportive atmosphere, we will use sharing, embodied improvisational performance, and sound healing to elevate voices of those who have been silenced. This event will acknowledge the deep impact of the ongoing human trafficking crisis and its unique effects on native communities. We look forward to holding and witnessing these stories from our community together. 

May 5 is recognized across the United States and Canada as the National Day of Awareness for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and People (#MMIWP). This day honors those who are impacted and those whose voices can no longer be heard.
