“Who do you want to be as an artist and what do you want to say to the world?” Gillian McNally combined her passion for social justice and love of theatre in a theatrical, academic career. In this episode, Professor McNally discusses her coursework at University of Northern Colorado, her recent research, and the ways theatre can be used as a springboard for class discussions about immigration, racism, gender identity, and gun violence.
