In Conversation with Riki Rachtman

Ensemble Arts Presents Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater

This is a one-of-a-kind evening that blends the best of Meet the Author with the energy of a Story Slam. Guests will enjoy true stories, unexpected connections, and an electric atmosphere — all built around the theme Making Waves.

Experience the behind-the-scenes debates and discussions of our Founding Fathers as they find common ground for the July 4, 1776 signing of our Declaration of Independence expressed in song and rapid-fire dialogue. Area theatre students bring these debates, decisions and personalities to life on stage!
