Our Programs
In addition to producing inspiring, entertaining, and profound productions Lifeline Productions wishes to continue the conversation about mental illness after the curtain closes.
College Performances
As part of our mission we will bring Clowns Like Me to the five area college campuses for two performances at no charge in October 2024. In partnership with the Cross College Alliance we hope to encourage a conversation on mental health and lead students to on-campus resources.
Playback Theatre Workshop
Inspired by our hit show Clowns Like Me, participants were invited to share their personal experiences and the impact of mental illness and developmental disorders in their lives to help create a dynamic live theatrical experience.
The Words We Use Matter
Our recent program held at YANA Sarasota provided participants an opportunity to understand how we can best support those with mental health issues, and advocate for understanding and compassion for those living with mental illness.
Guided Talk-Back Sessions
Each production includes a post-show talk-back session where our actors, staff, and mental health professionals provide an opportunity for audience members to share their experiences, ask questions, and seek guidance.
NAMI Walks Team
Each Lifeline is proud to partner with the National Alliance on Mental Illness and to support the NAMI of Sarasota and Manatee Counties annual NAMI Walks fundraising event. In addition to joining sponsors with a Lifeline booth at the 2023 event, our team raised over $600 to help support mental health in our community!
