Professor Mia Rovegno's Work with Troupe Noted in 'American Theatre' Magazine
Professor Mia Rovegno of the Theatre Department is a member of 'The Civilians,' a "boundary-busting...New York City-based documentary theatre troupe." Recently chosen as the first theatre company in residence at the Met, 'The Civilians' were hailed by 'American Theatre' magazine as being a vital part of the most recent wave of museum and theatre collaborations, which "takes the practice far beyond just providing a low-rent venue into the realm of true creative partnerships." According to the magazine, "The Civilians’ groundbreaking residency is part of a three-year-old performance series called the Met Museum Presents."
