Lecture | A conversation with two-time Tony Award winning playwright and director

Monday, October 24, 2022, 6:00 pm

Free

Enjoy a conversation with Tony Award winner George C. Wolfe about his remarkable career, with clips of recordings of his plays and musicals, and more.

Any list of the most important plays and musicals to open in New York in the last 30 years would include at least several works by playwright and director George C. Wolfe. His reimagining of Shuffle Along, his revival of The Iceman Cometh, and his celebration of the work of Jelly Roll Morton in Jelly's Last Jam exemplifies the library's goal of using the works of the past to help us understand our present and future. Wolfe's groundbreaking direction of the original Broadway productions Angels in America (for which he won a Tony Award in 1993) and Topdog/Underdog, as well as his work on Bring in 'Da Noise, Bring in 'Da Funk (bringing him another Tony Award in 1996) changed the landscape of the American theatre.
