| From March 3-5, 2022, Roy and Edna Disney/CalArts Theater (REDCAT), CalArtsâ center for contemporary arts in downtown Los Angeles, proudly presents New York-based performance ensemble Elevator Repair Service with their powerful new adaptation, Baldwin and Buckley at Cambridge.  In 1965, James Baldwin and William F. Buckley, Jr. were invited to The Cambridge University Union to debate the resolution âThe American Dream is at the Expense of The American Negro.â The result was a provocative and profoundly insightful confrontation between Baldwin, one of the most powerful figures of the civil rights movement, and Buckley, often considered the father of 20th Century patrician conservatism.  Elevator Repair Service, a company with a rich history of adapting unconventional texts stages the debate verbatim.  https://www.redcat.org/event/elevator-repair-service-baldwin-buckley-cambridge |
