RegisterJoin us for an innovative approach to translating history to the stage… but first, to the page! Playwright Katie Bender shares her process of researching and writing about Alamo survivors, ultimately creating her stage adaptation, Survivors/Los Sobrevivientes. The playwright introduces us to her compelling characters (both real and imagined), through this collaboration with The Public Theatre of San Antonio, as local talent brings them to life in performances of selected scenes. An audience Q&A rounds out the evening.
This event is a free program of the Tobin Theatre Arts Fund and related to current exhibition The Great Stage of Texas on view through July 24, 2022. Registration required.
