by Susan Bernfield

Theater

Venice Saved: A Seminar

by Gary Winter

Theater

“The beauty of the world is the mouth of a labyrinth. The incautious person, who, having entered, takes a few steps, is after some time unable to find his way back...If he doesn’t lose courage, if he continues to walk, it is absolutely certain that he will arrive at the center of the labyrinth. And there, God is waiting to eat him.” —Simone Weil

by Aurin Squire

Theater

There is no other company in America like Freedom Train Productions. Bold and innovative, the theater group combines LGBT politics with queer black theater with a Brooklyn edge.
