Show them how to grow a garden, let them taste the difference between foods that are junk and foods that are freshly grown PAN: Has your environmental health activism off-screen ever overlapped with your career, has any of your film/screen career ever addressed a related topic?

When is everybody’s comfort zone threatened by something new, or by new news, that this is not a good idea? But anyway, it’s fear of change and the event creates chaos and new directions for all of the main characters. And for me, it’s just an interesting dynamic of who are we really? When we think of ourselves as people, what do we really think and how true is it? So it can be food, it can be healthcare, it can be what you think of the planet, it can be energy sources, it can be anything. We don’t like change we don’t want anything to go away that we were comfortable with. A lot of us are very open to change, very interested in having a diverse population, but many of us are not. And an older resident, a widow, has taken it upon herself to work with her daughter and try and close the home, because of basically a fear of change and a fear of anything different.Īnd I think it’s interesting that we in this country, in North America, consider ourselves to very liberal. A group home has been purchased, or a home, a big mansion, in a very exclusive neighborhood to be made into a group home. The play is about NIMBY, Not In My Backyard. This spring the play is at the Los Angeles Theater Center and in the Latino Theater Company and it’s kind of interesting that a Canadian play is going to be done with a Latino company. The play has been done in Canada and in the UK and I don’t think it’s been done here in the U.S. I’m modeling that on many of my mother and grandmother’s friends in Canada. Susan: The play I’m doing is called Habitat and it’s by a wonderful Canadian author named Judith Thompson. PAN: Can you tell us about the play you’re in this spring? ( Note: This interview was conducted in early spring 2013, during the play's run.) PAN sat down with Susan Clark to discuss how she came to PAN and how PAN’s work relates to her own life and family.
