Dissecting the Anatomy of Civil Unrest

An Award-Winning Docudrama Revisited
Starts AUG 28 

Thirty years ago, the news of the police officers’ acquittal in Rodney King’s police brutality case reverberated throughout the streets of Los Angeles. The events that followed drew worldwide attention—and inspired Anna Deavere Smith (Notes from the Field: Doing Time in Education) to dissect the anatomy of the civil unrest in this Tony Award-nominated and Obie Award-winning play derived from interviews with more than 350 Los Angelinos. “When I wrote Twilight,” says Smith, “I thought about it like an opera, with all different kinds of relationships that are happening between us in this country.”
