moderated by Michael Mansfield, Aurora's Education Director

Henrik Ibsen explores ultra-individualism (among other things) through the “Industrial Dream” aristocratic eyes of John Gabriel Borkman (1896). Fifty years later, Arthur Miller would continue this exploration now through the “American Dream” middle-class eyes of Joe Keller in All My Sons (1949).

Conceived and developed by Aurora Artistic Director Tom Ross, the Aurora Script Club will meet four times during the company’s season for a moderated discussion with a theatre professional. Each script selection will be announced at least four weeks prior to its corresponding event.
