"It Can't Happen Here" An Enhanced Staged Reading of a Play by Sinclair Lewis
"It Can't Happen Here" An Enhanced Staged Reading of a Play by Sinclair Lewis
In 1935, as fascism was taking hold in Europe, Sinclair Lewis wrote It Can’t Happen Here, a dark satire that imagines the rise of a demagogue who becomes president of the United States. Presented first by the Federal Theatre Project, and adapted in 2016 by the Berkeley Repertory Theatre, this enhanced staged reading features theatrical lighting, audio effects, and projections of photographs that help set the stage for a compelling, and frightening, tale of the fall of American democracy. Performances on October 24 and 25 at 7:00 p.m.
