ArtsEmerson: ‘COINTELSHOW: A Patriot Act’

March 11, 2023 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm EST

COINTELSHOW: A Patriot Act is Larry Bogad’s biting political satire about COINTELPRO, the FBI’s counterintelligence program with which they sabotaged, disrupted, and repressed domestic groups like the Black Panther Party for Self-Defense, the American Indian Movement, along with individuals like Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Fred Hampton. Over the course of an hour, this interactive, virtual experience takes audiences under the redaction marks of actual, heavily-censored COINTELPRO documents into an underworld haunted by its victims.

Emerson students, faculty and staff can get one free ticket to any in-person or virtual ArtsEmerson theatre performance, film screening, or concert on the day of the event. Current Emerson students, faculty, and staff can purchase up to two $10 theatre tickets in advance to any ArtsEmerson production, both in-person and virtual. Visit ArtsEmerson for more information.
