S3 E3 Artists Without Borders: Amplifying The Work of Immigrant Playwrights During The Pandemic with Saviana Stanescu, Caridad Svich, and Daniel Gallant

Christine welcomes playwrights Saviana Stanescu, Caridad Svich and recently former Artistic Director of the Nuyorican Poet's Cafe Daniel Gallant (Gallant was still the current Artistic Director at the time of this recording) to chat about ways they have helped amplify the work of immigrant artists.

Each discuss how the pandemic taught them to be creative in producing work online and how it lifted borders and led to new audiences. TALKBACK is a production of the Dramatists Guild.
