Staging impactful and politically provocative theatre in times of social unease is the focus of this brilliantly crafted and much-needed presentation hosted by The School of Music, Theatre, and Dance. “Staging Unrest” is a panel, presentation, and discussion centered around the topic of how to stage and interpret art in a politically decisive climate, as well as the role of art in such a climate. The panel includes directors Malcolm Tulip and Dominika Knapik, designers Vince Mountain and Wolfgang Macher, and some of the members from the American and Polish cast. With a robust panel of many perspectives on performance on the stage including academic experts on theatre, this event is sure to be both moving and extremely important.
