Brown Theatre To Present Student-Written “You Are the Circus”
Monday, April 20, 2015
The Department of Theatre Arts and Performance Studies at Brown University presents You Are the Circus, written and directed by Katie Pearl, a final year M.F.A playwriting student.
The performance will take place from May 14-17 at the Pell Chafee Performance Center as part of the extended Writing is Live Festival.
"You Are The Circus is designed for audiences to experience both sitting in seats observing as a play or moving through the space. Audience members are free to engage as much or as little as they wish, engaging with the characters in individual conversation or just sitting and enjoying the show. I hope to create a show that is hospitable, casual, and exemplifies a permeable, generous performance that allows audiences to bring their whole selves to an experience without requiring that they ‘sit still, shut up, and watch,'" said Pearl.
