Though he believes that creativity equals "magic" and shouldn't be examined too closely, Edward Albee is a writer worthy of his own magical discussion. The man the New Yorker hailed as "the greatest living Playwright in America," and scribe of such classics as Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? and The Goat, or Who Is Sylvia? arrives at UCLA for an audience with fans and fellow writers looking for insight from a literary legend. The playwright, who has famously avowed that a play is about the "shit hitting the fan," won't just be pontificating on the process of creativity; he's also scheduled to ruminate on hot-button, timely topics from freedom of speech and repressive government, to the urgent need for cultural literacy.
