Oleanna: A Staged Reading

Event Image

This controversial drama about a university professor accused of sexual harassment by his female student is a seething investigation of “political correctness.” Over the course of three acts, John, who is on the brink of tenure, and Carol, his student, become embroiled in a power struggle and a war of words—leading to a shocking conclusion. The New York Times noted, “Oleanna is likely to provoke more arguments than any play this year.”
