Director Mark Spina and cast will lead interactive audience talkbacks after every Friday performance. “We expect that the script’s themes will provoke a wide range of questions, opinions and perspectives,” says Spina. “Dialoguing with our audiences and deliberating on these debates helps The Theater Project deliver on our commitment to inspire, provoke, and make live theater matter. The cast will also be available after each performance to take up individual Q&A with the audience. All Theater Project performances are on the ground level of Union County College’s two-story Cranford complex. The 75-seat venue can accommodate up to 12 wheelchairs. The flexible seating allows for companion and seeing-eye dog accommodation. The audio described performance for “Why Torture is Wrong…” will be on Thursday, July 8 at 8 p.m. |
