This upcoming season, Live at The Lortel looks at the intersection between art and activism. Honoring the work of theater artists who boldly use their public platform for philanthropy, to advance the state of theater, and to support the issues that they are passionate about, the Lortel seeks to explore how an artist’s passion for activism and philanthropy influences their artistry on the stage.
The live interviews will take place Mondays at 7:00 PM EST, offering theater fans the opportunity to view interviews and participate in a Q&A with artists. To join the audience, please visit www.liveatthelortel.com.
