Tony Randall, renowned actor and founder and artistic director of the National Actors Theater, will be holding a Q&A session about the dumbing down of contemporary culture and other timely subjects on February 5.

The event, Pace University’s annual Dyson Lecture in the Humanities, will be entitled, “The Theater and the Arts” and will be held at Pace University’s Michael Schimmel Theater for the Arts. The National Actors Theater’s first production at their new space at Pace University was a much-heralded production of The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui starring Al Pacino, Billy Crudup, Chazz Palminteri, and John Goodman.

The event starts at 6:00pm and is free and open to the public. The Michael Schimmel Theater for the Arts is located at Pace University (One Pace Plaza, east of City Hall, with the entrance on Spruce between Park Row and Gold Street).
