Phoenix/23 originated as a part of Enlightening The Dark and has since branched out on its own with the mission continuing. The title “Enlightening The Dark” comes from the idea that darkness exists in various forms. Sometimes it’s heartache and pain, other times it’s abuse and hate, it can even be ignorance and judgement. Regardless of the circumstances, we believe that light always casts out darkness and EN-lightening the individuals involved, brings empowerment and hope. It is our goal to confront the darkness that youth face by enlightening them through truth and the strength to tell their stories. We raise awareness about important issues and strive to gain wisdom as we embrace our gifts and shortcomings. The main aspect of "darkness" that we hope to learn from is that of stories untold or misunderstood.
Description
Phoenix/23 is an Theatrical Signing Troupe whose mission is to bring awareness and better understand the deaf culture and community.
