Pace University has announced An Evening with Zoe Caldwell for their Master Series. The event will be held Monday, April 23, at 6pm at the university’s Michael Schimmel Center for the Arts. The moderator will be Cosmin Chivu, the head of the Directing program at Pace Performing Arts.

A four time Tony Award winner, Zoe Caldwell was born in 1933 in Melbourne, Australia, and quickly became a professional actress playing “Slightly Soiled” in Peter Pan. Recently, she appeared in the film Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close and starred Off-Broadway in David Adjmi’s play Elective Affinities.

“The Masters Series” at Pace is dedicated to providing the new generation of students/artists with the opportunity of interacting with well-established, outstanding professionals that have developed new voices and ideas. The goal is to reinvigorate the theater’s ancient role as a public forum by focusing on the social and cultural context for the works of the American Theatre of today and tomorrow. The evening’s guests engage in discussions of their unique practices and bodies of work, followed by a Q&A session with Pace BFA and BA Performing Arts students.

Tickets are free and open to the public, and can be reserved by emailing PerformingArtsPress@pace.edu.
