ED-IFICATION WEEK

What is Ed-ification Week?

An informal conversation between Artistic Director Ed Shea and audience members focusing primarily on the artistic process and the audience's experience of the production. It is a free-wheeling and casual exploration of the theatrical experience from both sides of the "footlights." The talk begins shortly after the curtain call and lasts as long as it's lively.

Ed-ification Week for Comic Potential is scheduled for February 11 to 14.

SHRINK RAP

What is Shrink Rap?

The production's director is joined by psychiatrist (and 2nd Story actor) Rendueles Villalba and others for an exploration of the theatrical experience from a psychological perspective. The discussion tends to run the gamut of pop-psychology to a more clinical view as we put the playwright and characters "on the couch." The talk begins shortly after the play ends and lasts about forty-five minutes.

Shrink Rap for Comic Potential is scheduled for February 19.
