Professor Lauren Fein's tenure at a prestigious liberal arts college is challenged when allegations of impropriety with a student are brought to the Dean's attention. "The Cancellation of Lauren Fein," by Christopher Demos-Brown, is a close examination of innocence and guilt and a reflection of "cancel culture" in America. In this interactive discussion about the Palm Beach Dramaworks world premiere production, PBD's Gary Cadwallader examines the characters, their relationships, and the major themes of perception, blame, and responsibility. Multimedia clips supporting the discussion are utilized to enhance and support the story. Participants receive a copy of the play beforehand and a comprehensive, informative PBD Dramaguide written specifically for this discussion. After an in-depth conversation, participants leave with a deeper understanding of the play and the impact of politics in higher education.
