Using Theatre to Stay Present and Alive with Anne Bogart: Episode 012
In this episode, we talk with critically-acclaimed theatre director, Anne Bogart. Anne shares with us her journey as a young director working and finding her way in New York City and we talk a good deal about the importance of creating a theatre company of actors who train together. Through our conversation, it was apparent that the essence of community was a recurring theme.
