Description
If you love theater this is your chance to peek behind the theater curtains to better understand what happens on stage. Join three long-time theater professionals in a conversation about script development, theater performance, directing, acting, and the process of moving from script to stage. Duchess Dale, director and actor; Shepard Sobel, off-Broadway producer; and playwright Robert Benjamin, provide insights into how plays “work” in this interactive conversation.
Duchess Dale’s credits as an actor include her award-winning role as Annie Sullivan in The Miracle Worker and Truvy in Steel Magnolias. She directs the Oasis live theatre shows. Shepard Sobel was founder and artistic director of The Pearl Theatre Company in New York City. Sobel has taught in Santa Fe and Albuquerque and has directed at many other venues. Robert Benjamin is a late-blooming playwright, who writes upbeat comedies about aging with grace, courage, and humor.
