TONIGHT - visiting playwright Lavinia Roberts

Join us TONIGHT as we welcome award winning playwright Lavinia Roberts! A script-in-hand reading of one of her works will also be performed by ESU students. 

Tonight, November 25
7:00 PM
MU Kanza Room

Roberts is a published and award-winning playwright, puppet designer, educator, and artist. She has over 50 plays published and her work has been performed in all 50 states and internationally in Australia, Canada, Ireland, Singapore, South Africa, South Korea, Turkey, and the United Kingdom. 

Mythology, fairy tales, speculative fiction, and history majorly influence her creative practice, and she uses speculative fiction as a way to reexamine our world and imagine and explore different ways of being and perceiving. Through her work Roberts explores the effects of moral injury on individuals, perpetrators, families, and communities and is passionate about social justice, exploring privilege, neurodiversity, and stewardship of the environment. 

Check out her website https://laviniaroberts.com/playwright/ to learn more and see her incredible, surreal works.

This event is free and open to everyone!
