“We're in our third season of partnering with OPC on the post-show series "Formative Stages: Theater and the Life of the Mind" and it's been an incredible way to create an added level of value to our audiences' experience of art, theater and ideas. A frequent comment we've heard is that following a vibrant post-show conversation, the discussion continues out the front door of the Gerding Theater and onto the Streetcar--which is more than we can ask for. This is an ideal platform for exploring how shared stories tell us about who we are and what we believe and an even better way to use the arts to frame questions around love, power, conflict, loss, justice and other big ideas.”
