SB 30 Episode 85: Angels among us, with author Susan Cushman

Jun 15 2023 41 mins  
"For many years merely to talk of angels invited scorn. Belief bespoke of craziness, even schizophrenia, and certainly denoted a pitiful lack of intellect.

“To champion a cause, you have to reboot your fundamental belief in the goodness of people, and that goodness will win out.

"We’ve been working with the consultants that helped reimagine Crosstown Concourse. We had some of the same braintrust working with us.

“At Playhouse, we have the honor of producing a number of shows each season.

Oct 18 2022 45 mins  
"When you start really thinking about what (Rust Hall) can be... when I look at what our current exhibitions could look like here, having the space where you could actually walk around each of the objects instead of having things against the wall where you can't fully appreciate the work... that's a moment that's exciting to me. It's also our educational programming. I get so excit
