Transcendent. Emotional. Spiritual. These are all words that some may use to describe their reaction after seeing a performance by a musician, dancer, or actor. But what happens before the performance can embody all those qualities as well. Join us for a series of conversations between creators and performers as they talk about the relationship between the two roles, and how they translate emotional reactions into what we hear and see on stage and screen.
