Pointed Conversations invites members of the community to further engage with our artistic work through discussion on the themes and ideas of our current production.

Facilitated by community partners, we investigate a range of topics pertaining to the show to process the performance and the conversation it inspires. With events held at the theater and in the surrounding neighborhood, Pointless aims to fulfill the second half of its mission - to nurture a diverse, active, and inspired audience.

All events are free and open to the public. RSVP suggested for most events; required for student workshops.
