Frank Prosnitz/A Bridge to the Future

A conversation with Trinity Repertory Company's Curt Columbus

Frank Prosnitz/Curt Columbus

The word theatre comes from the Greeks. It means the seeing place. It is the place people come to see the truth about life and the social situation. - Stella Adler

 Viewed as perhaps Rhode Island's premier arts’ organization, Trinity Repertory Company is among the only surviving repertory companies in the nation. Curt Columbus is Trinity's longtime artistic director and shares his perspective why Trinity has survived as a repertory company when other have not, the state of the arts, and the importance of depicting on stage “the truth about life, and the social situation.”
