Lecture: Janet M. Roberts in “On the Road: A One Helluva Woman Show”

Janet Roberts, founder of Cultural Innovations in Action, shares the exploits, obstacles and joys of her road trip across the country. Learn about this 80-year-old activist’s adventures in her Prius as she interviewed community leaders to evoke change in the arts, education and the economy.

On the Road was originally produced by Stageworks Theatre in Tampa and directed by Karla Hartley, producing artistic director. It premiered to a sold out audience and is now available to other venues in Hillsborough County with support of a Community Arts Impact Grant from Arts Council of Hillsborough County and Hillsborough County Board of Commissioners.

On the Road captures Janet Roberts’ personal experiences on her solo journey and features brief video clips from her interviews with change makers. Janet covered 13,026 miles in 67 days, shot 51 videos, had six car problems, nearly finished 1.75 liters of rum AND did finish countless glasses of red wine.
