Godfrey L. Simmons Jr., senior lecturer in the Cornell Department of and co-artistic director of Ithaca's Civic Ensemble theatre group, and four-time Emmy-award winner and playwright Judy Tate join us for episode 17 of the PMA Podcast.
Listen in for a discussion on Tate's Fast Blood, presented by Civic Ensemble July 5-22 at the Maggie Goldsmith ampitheater at Lehman Alternative Community School in Ithaca. PMA associate professor Beth F. Milles directs. Fast Blood, a story about slavery, redemption, and ending the cycle of vengeance, is the first of two plays in Civic Ensemble's summer festival Civic Acts: New Plays Toward the Beloved Community. The festival features political plays by women whose work centers on women and people of color.
