Nancy Sorkin Rabinowitz. The Margaret Bundy Scott Professor of Comparative Literature, will be associated with a grant received by The American Philological Association and Peter Meineck, of Aquila Theatre. The project, Page and Stage: Theater, Tradition and Culture in America, is an in-depth partnership between the library and the theater. It will place live theatrical events, reading groups and lectures in public libraries to inspire people to read, see and think about classical literature and how it continues to influence and invigorate American cultural life. Rabinowitz will be one of the scholars in women's studies who will be discussing performance of tragedy in New York libraries.
The Aquila Theater Company, the Urban Libraries Council (ULC), the American Philological Association (APA) and the Center for Ancient Studies at New York University will develop and guide this program that will forge a unique partnership between 16 public libraries with their local performing arts centers.
