Playwright Tony Kushner will take part in the next event in the Guthrie Theater’s continuing legal education series with West LegalEdcenter.
Kushner will be a panelist at the CLE titled Love, Law and Litigation: A Dialog of Bias in American Sexual and Gender Identity on June 9 at the Guthrie in Minneapolis. He is best-known for his two-part epic Angels in America, and has won the Pulitzer Prize, an Emmy Award and two Tony Awards.
The event aims to explore polarized social attitudes related to sexual orientation and gender identity and their effect on law throughout the United States, and will feature live stage performances by Guthrie actors, along with discussions of excerpts from Kushner’s plays by a panel of legal professionals.
Attorneys around the world also can access the event online at West LegalEdcenter as a live webcast from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. Central on June 9, and later as an on-demand video.
To enroll in either the live event at the Guthrie or the live webcast on June 9, visit West LegalEdcenter.com, search by program name and continue through the checkout process.
The course, which costs $200, provides 2.0 credits toward the Elimination of Bias requirements in Minnesota, California and Oregon. It provides 2.0 or greater CLE credits toward the Ethics requirements of most other jurisdictions. CPD credit has also been applied for in the United Kingdom.
