2014 Stanford Repertory Theater's summer symposium festival will feature keynote speaker Professor Steve Vineberg: film critic for The Three Penny Review and the author of several books on American cinema. Other symposium contributors will include Stanford emeriti professors Alice Rayner and William Eddelman (Theater and Performance Studies), Professor Samuel Otter (Department of English, UC Berkeley), SRT Artistic Director Rush Rehm, and SRT company members Rod Gnapp, Peter Ruocco, Courtney Walsh, and Tom Freeland. The symposium also features a live performance of Now You See It, Now You Don’t (written by Laurence Maslon and starring Harry Ford as a young Orson Welles), and scenes from the dramatic adaptation of Melville’s Billy Budd. We begin the day with morning coffee and muffins, break for a delicious catered lunch (of Wellesian proportions!), and recharge the afternoon with tea and cookies.
