Anna Pileggi, Professor of the Practice in Drama is the director for Tuesdays with Morrie, currently playing at the New Jewish Theatre.
The show will run from October 4 - 22, 2017.The play is an adaption of the much loved book by Mitch Albom.
According to Pileggi, "It's been a wonderful experience exploring the legacy of Morrie Schwartz, Professor of Sociology at Brandeis University, my graduate school alma mater. I was at Brandeis in the late '80's when Morrie was still teaching. Although I never got to meet him, as I have worked on this play, it has become a source of joy and comfort to know we share that point of connection. He was a truly inspirational man and teacher."
