Wow, I thought today's interview with Del Hamilton and Ismail ibn Conner of 7 Stages Theatre would serve to simply tell us more about their upcoming season and on-going projects. However, we all received a history lesson - from the KKK demonstraton in 1980's Atlanta, a French lesson centered on playwright Bernard-Marie Koltès, and the origins of the name "7 Stages" - it was a great time!
