Theatre Meme Culture
Friday February 7, 2025 9:30am - 10:30am EST
What happens when the world of high art collides with internet humor? Join us as we explore the unexpected marriage of theatre and memes. This panel dives into how some creators in the theatre community have embraced meme culture to satirize, celebrate, and sometimes even critique the art form itself. We'll discuss how memes have become the modern-day theatre critic, the ultimate inside joke, and an evolving language of performance. Sit back, relax, and enjoy our exploration of the humor and relatability within everything, from backstage antics to iconic performances!
