What Audiences Are Saying About INVISIBLE MAN

Have you seen Invisible Man? Please share your comments with us.

• In the final moment of the play, Invisible Man declares, "Who knows but that, on the lower frequencies, I speak for you?" When have you felt invisible? Did this story speak for you? 

• Theatre and novels are two very different methods of telling a story. Have you read Ralph Ellison's original novel? Do you think this was a successful stage adaptation? Do you think the theatrical elements -- the video projections, Invisible Man's narration, etc. -- were effective in telling the story?

• Did you attend a post-show conversation? What comments surprised you or made you think differently about the play? Would you attend a post-show conversation again? What were you thinking about on the way home from the theatre?

What Audiences Are Saying About Captors

Have you seen Captors yet?
Please share your comments with us!

• How did you feel watching Eichmann get captured for the second time? Was this Nazi war criminal a sympathetic character, or are his actions still irredeemable?


• Captors is a dramatization of actual historical events that hopefully illuminates the story in a new and unfamiliar light. Even Peter Malkin himself struggled to remember the exact details of his time in Buenos Aires. Did this story affect or change your perception of world history? Did parts of the the play surprise you, even if you already knew the history behind it and how the story would end?
