NYCLU Night at the Theater: Are You Now Or Have You Ever Been

Join the NYCLU on Wednesday, July 22 at 7:30 PM for a special evening at the theatre exploring the enduring importance of free expression, political freedom, and the right to dissent with a timely revival of Eric Bentley’s electrifying docudrama, Are You Now Or Have You Ever Been, which brings to life the tense and consequential world of the 1940s House Committee on Un-American Activities hearings. Following the performance, join a special talkback conversation with Donna Lieberman and Michael Schulman of The New Yorker. The discussion will explore the play’s themes of moral ambiguity, the historical parallels to today, and the continued importance of the NYCLU’s work protecting free speech and civil liberties.
