The American Repertory Theater is one the most respected and innovative dramatic institutions in the United States. Through the prism of the A.R.T., this program explores the organizational and creative challenges facing today's theater community and describes the flexibility and resilience arts groups must have to survive in today's cultural climate. F. Murray Abraham, Debra Winger, and numerous other renowned performers-along with groundbreaking directors Andrei Serban, Peter Sellars, and Robert Woodruff-join A.R.T. technicians and artisans in illuminating the precarious condition of American theater. Tony Award-winning actress Cherry Jones narrates.
