Yale-New Haven Doctors to Speak at Symposium for Let Me Down Easy on Jan. 27

MAINSTAGE • JANUARY 9 - FEBRUARY 3, 2008
"Let Me Down Easy"

WRITTEN AND PERFORMED BY ANNA DEAVERE SMITH
DIRECTED BY STEPHEN WADSWORTH

Known to Long Wharf Theatre audiences as the creator of Fires in the Mirror and Twilight: Los Angeles, Anna Deavere Smith's newest one-woman show explores the resiliency and vulnerability of the human body.

Channeling the dramatically different corporeal experiences of her many interview subjects, from survivors of the Rwandan genocide to the head coach of the national champion University of Texas football team, Smith captures a kind of grace on stage, a grace that will tell us about the resourcefulness of the human spirit.
