Gatsby Community Workshop

Posted on by Stephen Deloney
The Malden Public Library will host a free workshop by the American Repertoire Theater for  ages 16+. The workshop will held in the Maccarrio Room Thursday July 25th from 6-8PM. RSVPs are required. Sign up here.
Inspired by A.R.T.’s production of Gatsby, these workshops use theater as a framework to explore themes of belonging, aspirations for the future, and what the American Dream means today, and activate our Essential Question: How can we build a new world that is in conversation with those that came before? 
 
A.R.T.’s Engagement workshops allow community members from across Greater Boston to deeply engage in the themes, questions, and ideas sparked by our productions through theatrical frameworks, generative dialogue, and community-building activities.
