The Rude Mechanicals’ Kirk Lynn and University of Texas at Austin Professor of Theatre Charlotte Canning discuss collaboration between playwrights and directors in “An Evening with the Rude Mechanicals.” A performance of scenes from The Method Gun, a work-in-progress inspired by acting teacher Stella Adler, follows. The program begins with a moderated discussion about the relationship between the Rude Mechanicals’ current project, The Method Gun, and the Ransom Center’s exhibition Rehearsing the American Dream: Arthur Miller’s Theater. Then members of the cast of The Method Gun will perform various scenes from the work-in-progress. The program will end with a dance number based on the drinking of rum cocos in Tennessee William’s Night of the Iguana, and drinks will be served to the audience during a question-and-answer period.
