Theatre

Emily Mann, Artistic Director

By

Emily Mann

Susan Wallner talks to playwright, director, and artistic director Emily Mann. Mann is celebrating her 20th anniversary season at the Tony Award-winning McCarter Theatre with a restaging of "Having Our Say: The Delany Sisters' First 100 Years." Times have changed since its first production -- as Mann says, "People came with different expectations in 1995 to this play about these two extraordinary black women."
