A Tony Award-nominated director and alumna of Emerson College will come to campus on Monday, October 26, to discuss her work in the theater.

Joining Sheryl Kaller ’82 is Winnie Holzman, writer of the hit musical Wicked. Kaller and Holzman are in Boston for the Huntington Theatre Company’s production of Holzman’s new play, Choice, directed by Kaller and featuring Ken Cheeseman, Emerson Performing Arts senior artist-in-residence.

The pair will speak at the Semel Theater from 12:00 to 1:45 pm.

Choice runs through November 15 at the Calderwood Pavilion at the Boston Center for the Arts.
