Segal Theatre Center will host live events and Segal Talks, comprised of conversations, readings, workshops, screenings, and book talks with and by New York and global theatre artists this March through June. After two and a half years of hibernation, The Graduate Center CUNY has finally reopened for public events
The Segal Center is continuing publication on its academic journals ARAB STAGES, EUROPEAN STAGES, JADT Journal of American Drama and Theater and is preparing five book projects about theater in Berlin, Iran, Italy, France, Galicia/Spain and the US. Stay tunes for news about the upcoming DOWN TO EARTH Prelude NYC Park Festival and a four day symposium about the work of Robert Wilson.
We thank everyone for the tremendous support we received during the Time of Corona-more that 200.000 people tuned in to our 200 Segal Talks, the Segal Film Festival of work for the screen by over 100 theatre artists from over 50 countries as well as the planetary 24-hour-online marathons "HowlRound for India" with over 100 artists as well as the 12 hour online event "New York Theatre Artist for Ukraine" with 24 New York theatre institutions. We are truly grateful to all those who stay tuned and can't wait to see you live and in person back at the Segal Theatre.
