CENTERSTAGE Announces AfterThoughts Series for THE MOUNTAINTOP thru 2/24
Throughout the run of The Mountaintop, CENTERSTAGE encourages audiences to join the conversation with a series of pre- and post-show discussions. These events will take place on performances scheduled with the regular AfterThoughts Series, but will be enhanced by pre-show conversations and special post-show guest speakers from civic organizers continuing Dr. King's legacy of advocacy and activism within our own community. Events begin tonight, Thursday, January 24, and continue throughout the run.
ForeWords: Pre-show, join members of the CENTERSTAGE staff for a conversation about the play, held in the back of The Head Theater. ForeWords conversations will be held on the same performance dates as AfterThoughts.
AfterThoughts: Post-show discussions with members of the CENTERSTAGE Artistic staff and special community guests.
