Continuing the conversation

As humans, each of us has individual and personal experiences that inform our understanding, relationship, and response to the world around us. Theatre can often evoke discomfort when exploring difficult subject matter, such as abortion, consent, and physical assault, as presented in this powerful play.

A Note from Director Debbie Allen

Theatre is that glorious empty space that challenges imagination, artistry, and discovery like no other place I know. Done well, it entertains, provokes thought, and can be an instrument of change. For weeks I have been the leader in the exploration of Will Power’s Fetch Clay, Make Man, a work, true to the reputation of the author, that tells a s...

‘Jokesters’ at Center Theatre Group

HAPPY APRIL! It’s the month that starts off with dad jokes, belly laughs, prank calls, and awkward moments where you pretend to laugh at your director’s less-than-funny jokes. But for pranksters and comedians, this is the time to shine. Comedy is a unique tool that helps artists communicate their stories through laughs and cackles. It’s a sto...
