An Important Notice of 'Divine' Theatre to Those Whom Hear the Calling
July 8th, 2009 All people living in The Greater Milwaukee Area are encouraged to participate in a developing parade in collaboration with Milwaukee Public Theatre. MPT's creation of acclaimed protagonist theatre, presents vital contemporary themes, celebrating that which overcomes defined and isolated social ills. The concepts being used in the parade have surfaced from general public opinion sessions or information gathered in the last few months at varying locations throughout the city. The First Annual People's Parade and Pageant's attempts to heal the city and encourages area Volunteers to sign-up today, in person, at the Parade Warehouse located at 2210 W. Clybourn Ave., in Milwaukee. The parade will be held on August 8th, 2009 at Washington Park. In highlighting complex structures, storyboard designed theatre, costuming, and puppetry, is confirmed and created, and then used to challenge volunteer and spectator alike to reach a level of consciousness, or mental and emotional potential, in that, it is an attempt to heal the discerning masses and to satisfy the obsequious volunteers in one fell swoop.

It is imperative that all spheres of humanity include themselves in this effort for a 'full example' effect, because of this, all ages, all nationalities, all credos, are essential. This themed parade satisfies the communal to urge to heal through cumulative transitions of ideas morphing through a labyrinth into a positive ending. It touches base on rage, industrialized material scorn, addresses food supply issues and maybe a repetitive theme, which comes up time and time again- as does victimization, and in succeeding in truth, attempts to include freedom from pain and final healing. It's means are to advance society through dramatizations, and ends fully on a positive note. MPT is personally sifting social masses in order to find warm bodies willing to help fill the roles, which are very light in musical technical knowledge-ability, and either walking people or wheel-chaired people are needed to carry light puppets, intricately designed, to unearth and support the main overall character of the parade/pageant. The event is non-motorized.
