October 15 through November 5, 2022
The Playwriting & Screenwriting program and the Conservatory of Theatre Arts at Purchase College present a festival celebrating playwright and teacher María Irene Fornés
See productions of her plays, screen a documentary, attend a rehearsal, take a writing workshop, and meet a couple dozen artists -- including Purchase students and faculty -- who have been changed through their encounters with one of the most influential writers of her generation.
Additional events, including presentations of work by Purchase students, will be added to this schedule. Keep an eye on this website for up-to-date information.
The FornésFest planning committee is Mariana Carreño King, Peggy Stafford, Jack Tamburri, & Andrea Thome
Thanks to the School of Film & Media Studies, the Office of the President, and the Office of the Provost for their support of FornésFest
