本次活动特别值得一提的是加拿大高校文学社首次推出舞台系列剧《反欺凌！共建美好明天！》，自从今年一月底确切得到约克区政府基金之后，加拿大高校文学社负责这个项目的陈刚理事迅速行动起来，在全体理事会成员大力协助下，在一个月之内进行了征文，征求舞台剧剧本，排练等等系列准备。征求舞台剧本得到了社会各界包括年轻人在内的非常积极的响应，在短短15天之内一共征集到了20部剧本，其中包括了几个大学年轻大学生们的创作作品，文学社迅速投入到排练之中，所有参加演出的演职人员在极短的时间内完成了由布兰登大学心理系教授，东北师范大学加拿大校友会创会及名誉会长苏畅博士创作的这台针对华人新冠歧视，学校霸凌，应对策略的“反欺凌，共建美好明天”的舞台剧，现场演出非常成功！高校文学社也将在以后的几年里陆续推出多部优秀舞台剧。
Especially noteworthy is the Canadian Literary Association of Higher Education(CLAHE in short)’s inaugural series of stage plays, “Anti-bullying! Building a Better Tomorrow!” Ever since securing funding from the York Region government at the end of January this year, Chen Gang, the director responsible for this project at CLAHE, took prompt action. With the strong assistance of all council members, they conducted solicited stage play scripts, and undertook rehearsals within a month. The call for stage play scripts received a highly positive response from various sectors of society, including enthusiastic participation from young people. In a short 15 days, they successfully collected a total of 20 outstanding scripts, including works from young university students across different campuses.
CLAHE swiftly immersed itself in rehearsals and, in an exceptionally short period, completed the stage play titled “Anti-bullying, Building a Better Tomorrow.” This play, authored by Dr. Su Chang, a professor in the Psychology Department at Brandon University and the founding and honorary president of the Northeast Normal University Alumni Association of Canada, addresses anti-Chinese discrimination during the COVID-19 pandemic, school bullying, and response strategies. The live performance was very successful! CLAHE plans to gradually showcase the best stage plays over the coming years.
