CREATING A CHARACTER: THE MONI YAKIM LEGACY

WORLD PREMIERE  What do Jessica Chastain, Viola Davis, Patti LuPone and Alex Sharp have in common?  They are but a few of the extraordinary actors who have studied under Moni Yakim at Juilliard, America’s greatest performing arts school. With interviews with Laura Linney, Anthony Mackie and Kevin Kline, this compelling portrait of the master teacher—the sole remaining founder of the school’s legendary Drama Division—takes us inside the drama classes where Moni and his wife Mina pour their love and passion into preparing the next generation of actors for the spotlight.
