On Tuesday, May 12th, 6pm, at the Mechanics Institute, Perloff will be in conversation with Ralph Lewin, Executive Director of the Mechanics’ Institute & on Sunday, May 17th, 4pm at the Contemporary Jewish Museum , Perloff discusses the book with Lori Starr, Executive Director of The CJM.
In Beautiful Chaos, Carey Perloff, award-winning playwright, director, and Artistic Director of the American Conservatory Theater, pens a vibrant and revealing memoir of her twenty-plus years at the helm. From reminiscing about her turbulent first few years at A.C.T. to ruminating on the potential for its future, she takes on critical questions about leadership and creative inspiration. She delivers an impassioned manifesto for the role of live theater in today’s world, with a special emphasis, of course, on San Francisco, where A.C.T.’s new theater The Strand soon joins tech neighbors like Twitter in the mid-Market neighborhood. (The Strand’s ribbon-cutting is Thursday, May 14th at 11am.)
