The Seattle Repertory Theatre will present its continuing series of community discussions, Humanities Forum in connection with the performance of The Breach, to be held February 9. The discussion will be moderated by Seattle Rep Education Director, Andrea Allen, and admission is free.

These hour-long panel discussions feature Seattle Repertory staff, artists, and scholars examining issues and themes related to the plays. Panelists for this installment include David Esbjornson, director of The Breach, Todd Jefferson Moore, actor and playwright and Jack Bentz, Artistic Director of Deus X Machina theatre company.

In The Breach, playwrights Catherine Filloux, Tarell Alvin McCraney, and Joe Sutton weave together three unique and separate stories from those who survived Hurricane Katrina. In its exploration of the impacts of Katrina, this play taps the conspiracy theories, loss and hope of this devastated American region.
