Sightlines: Intervisibility and "The Seeing Place"

Drawing on places deep within the text, Professor Green works with students to illuminate the inner rhythms of a play to deepen our understanding of one another. How can Theater transform the moment, and also be the means of seeing and understanding in new ways?

Alumni, parents, family and friends are welcome to join the conversation. Time will be available for Q&A.
