Join us in welcoming visiting professors Genevra Gallo-Bayiates and Andy Bayiates on October 19th. Genevra and Andy are Chicago-area playwrights and co-writers of “45 Plays for 45 Presidents”, “The Lowell Offering”, and “45 Plays for America’s First Ladies” which is currently running online at The Neo-Futurists and was recently named by Jesse Greene as the “Critic’s Choice” in the New York Times. We discuss their work, plays, and their lives as alumni of the world-famous Neo-Futurists of Chicago.
