TED Talk Video Screening & Discussion: “Why Theater is Essential to Democracy”
Wednesday, January 30, 2019
Truth comes from the collision of different ideas, and theater plays an essential role in showing us that truth, says legendary artistic director Oskar Eustis. In this powerful talk, Eustis outlines his plan to reach (and listen to) people in places across the US where the theater, like many other institutions, has turned its back. "Our job is to try to hold up a vision to America that shows not only who all of us are individually, but that welds us back into the commonality that we need to be," Eustis says. "That's what the theater is supposed to do." Registration required. To register visit www.cityofparkland.org/library or call (954)757-4207.
