SUMMARY:A Seat at the Table: The After-Party with Film Festival Alliance (virtual)
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the final part of our Film Festival Accessibility Series! \nAfter that delicious meal\, it’s time to wind down.. To wrap up our series\, we gather to talk about long-term sustainability. Accessibility isn’t a one-time project; it is a shared\, ongoing journey. How do we build structural roadmaps that survive staff turnover\, distribute the workload across departments\, and ensure that “hospitality” becomes a permanent part of our festival cultures? \nhttps://filmfestivalalliance.org/education/accessibility-series  \nAccessibility: ASL interpreter and captioning

SUMMARY:The Royale: Open Caption Performance at Writers Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Jay is a really good boxer\, so good they call him “The Sport.” He’s won his last seventy-six fights and has his sights set on being crowned the next heavyweight champion. But it’s 1905\, and in the Jim Crow era\, a Black man doesn’t get to fight a reigning white champion. \nWhen a surprising chance at the title appears\, Jay gears up for the fight of his life—where the stakes are staggeringly high inside the ring and out. Inspired by real-world boxer Jack Johnson\, this adrenaline rush of a play by Marco Ramirez (Orange is the New Black\, Buena Vista Social Club) is a kinetic and poetic portrayal of what it takes and what it costs to make history. \nUse code WTOC2627 for $30.00 tickets. Our Open Caption performance is on November 19th at 7:30 pm. If you have any issue with the code at checkout\, please contact the Writers Theatre Box Office: 847-242-6000 or boxoffice@writerstheatre.org \n  \nAccessibility: Open Captions\, Assistive Listening Devices\, Large Print Programs by Request\, Wheelchair Accessible \nWebsite: https://www.writerstheatre.org/events/the-royale
