Libby Lit (second from right) is a paraprofessional at Hopkinton High School and creator of the Hopkinton Center for the Arts’ Unified Theater program. She developed the program as a way for special needs students to apply drama and dramatic practice in their daily lives. “Theater and drama touch every aspect of the human experience,” said Lit. She has earned recognition for her playwriting as well. Lit was part of a playwriting team for a show entitled “The Audacity: Women Speak,” which earned the Elliot Norton award for outstanding production, small or fringe theater, in 2019. Unified Theater’s next productions will take place at the HCA Dec. 19-20.
The Arts Residency, sponsored by realtor Alan Connell, is a regular Hopkinton Independent feature. Every other week, Hopkinton Independent staff selects an individual to highlight following consultation with leaders in the local arts community.
