On February 22, the series features “Conflict and Comedy: The 1960s in New York City.” American theatre specialist David Savran and MMC faculty members from across the College will discuss the social and political forces at play in New York during 1965, the year in which The House of Blue Leaves is set. Participants include David Savran, distinguished professor and Vera Mowry Roberts Chair in American Theatre at Graduate Center, CUNY; Leslie Levin, associate professor of business management; David Linton, professor of communication arts; and Kent Worcester, associate professor of political science. The event is free, first-come and first-seated, and open to the public.
