If You Have Tears: What Makes Us Cry In Theatre?
IF YOU HAVE TEARS
What Makes Us Cry in Theatre?
A new webinar hosted by Alan Stanford
Friday, September 24, 2021
2pm ET | Live on YouTube!
“If You Have Tears…” That quote from Mark Antony in his oration over the body of Caesar is an incitement to cry. And whether they be tears of joy or of grief, it is a very human response.
But what is it that elicits such emotion in the theatre? And for that matter, how does theatre trick us into crying? This week we will examine how theatre can play on our emotions and brings us – quite literally – to tears.
Watch live at 2pm ET on our YouTube channel, or enjoy the replay at any time after the live broadcast.
