Overview

We are proud to be hosting one of the most famous playwrights in America. David Henry Hwang will lead up a panel of artists to discuss the complexities of updating controversial plays. From his his M. Butterfly, to the recent production of An Octoroon and even Shakespeare's Merchant of Venice, we will ask: what does it take to re-vision classic plays that may be out of sync with contemporary society?
