Scenes from the Bushnell

Literature to Life

Imagine seeing one of your favorite books brought to life. That transformation is created with each performance of the Literature to Life series. The process combines a professional actor and verbatim selections from a significant American literary work. The result is an intimate and emotionally-charged performance.

Literature to Life was created for middle- and high-school students by The American Place Theatre in New York City. Working in collaboration with them, The Bushnell selected five shows from the roster and packaged them with additional material in a new series for adults. Please check back soon for a list the shows in the 2010-2011 season.

The Literature to Life series is sponsored by the SBM Charitable Foundation.
