Established during LCT's 1998-1999 season, the Platform series was initiated to provide a lively forum for leading authors, actors, directors, and designers to talk about their work with audience members.
Platform Talks take place in the lobby of the Vivian Beaumont Theater. Doors open half an hour before the talk. Seating is limited. First come, first served.
