Aurora Theatre's Script Club Examination of ALL MY SONS Rescheduled for April 19

Aurora Theatre Company has rescheduled its third Aurora Script Club meeting of the season - Arthur Miller's All My Sons, Monday, April 19, 7:30pm instead of the previously announced April 26.

Berkeley's acclaimed Aurora Theatre Company presents the third Aurora Script Club meeting of the season with Arthur Miller's All My Sons. Aurora Theatre Company Education Director Michael Mansfield hosts this moderated discussion series. The focus for this evening will be the idea of individualism, examining Aurora Theatre Company's production of Henrik Ibsen's family drama John Gabriel Borkman (1896) and its aristocratic version of the "Industrial Dream" in light of Miller's family drama about the middle-class and the "American Dream," penned 50 years later.

The Aurora Script Club was conceived and developed by Aurora Theatre Company Artistic Director Tom Ross.

Aurora Theatre Company continues its 18th season with Henrik Ibsen's fiercely relevant John Gabriel Borkman, in a new version by David Eldridge. Written in 1896, and recently revived at London's Donmar Warehouse to great critical acclaim, Ibsen's penultimate play is a pointed indictment of capitalism, selfish ambition, and greed. Aurora Theatre Company founding Artistic Director Barbara Oliver, who directed the company's hit production of Ibsen's The Master Builder, returns to helm this drama about a family confined by an inescapable, unappeasable past. Featuring James Carpenter and Karen Grassle, John Gabriel Borkman plays April 2-May 9 at the Aurora Theatre in Berkeley.
