Silenced Voices: The Life and Death of the Federal Theatre Project is a new play written by Brian Rose in collaboration with Dan Held, who also directs. Inspired by the rise and controversial demise of the Federal Theatre Project during the New Deal era, the play examines one of the most ambitious experiments in American theatre history, exploring questions about artistic freedom, public funding for the arts, and who has the power to determine which stories are told. The reading features Axial Theatre Ensemble members Catherine Banks, Lev Harvey, Marisa Lowe, and Patrick McGuinness, joined by special guests Jessica Bonds, Kayla P. Lewis, Phil Garfinkel, Shawn Cribari, Adam Black, and Anthon Mondesir. A moderated post-show discussion with the playwright, director, and creative team follows the performance as part of Axial Theatre's SAFEHOUSE Playwrights Series.
