Book Overview
"After 9/11, I noticed that people were gravitating with gusto toward one another to converse, to consider, to listen and to discuss...There seemed to be a need for mutual exchange under standard light, without artifice or the separation of stage and audience...In this spirit, I began an initiative in SITI Company's studio entitled Conversations with Anne." --From the Introduction by Anne Bogart
From one remarkable mind to another, Conversations with Anne documents the series of intimate interviews that theater director Anne Bogart has conducted--before live audiences--with major artists and cultural thinkers at her West Side studio over half a decade. In these extraordinary conversations, Bogart and her guests consider such free-ranging topics as the driving forces in their work, the paths their lives have taken, and their visions for the future of their field. Bogart delves into the daily thoughts of these artists and thinkers whom she most admires--a group that, collectively, has profoundly shaped the arts and artistry in America over the past twenty-five years.
