Truthsayers Speaker Series Presents 

Anna Deavere Smith

Friday, April 27, 7PM
at August Wilson Center

Playwright, actor, and educator, Anna Deavere Smith uses her singular brand of theatre to explore issues of community, character, and diversity in America. The MacArthur Foundation honored Smith with the “Genius” fellowship for creating “a new form of theatre–a blend of theatrical art, social commentary, journalism and intimate reverie.” Best known for crafting more than 15 one-woman shows, based on hundreds of conversations, Smith turns her interviews into scripts, transforming herself in to an astonishing number of characters.
