Help Us Choose

August 17, 2015

We want your help choosing the final play of our season. Is there a play that you want to see at Palomar Theatre? Is there a theme or a subject that you think we should address? The only criteria are that it must have at least 8 characters and it cannot be a musical. Use the comment box below to submit your suggestion.

Nina Simone on the Duty of an Artist

An artist’s duty, as far as I’m concerned, is to reflect the times. I think that is true of painters, sculptors, poets, musicians. . . I CHOOSE to reflect the times and situations in which I find myself. That, to me, is my duty. And at this crucial time in our lives, when everything is so desperate, when every day is a matter of survival, I don’t think you can help but be involved. . . We will shape and mold this country or it will not be molded and shaped at all anymore. So I don’t think you have a choice. How can you be an artist and NOT reflect the times? That to me is the definition of an artist.
