Joshua Jackson & Lauren Ridloff (With Interpreter Candace Broecker-Penn) On “Children Of A Lesser Go

In 1980, "Children of a Lesser God" premiered on Broadway and asked: how can we truly communicate? Now, Tony Award-winning director Kenny Leon is laying this question bare in a breathtaking new production of this landmark play starring Joshua Jackson, Lauren Ridloff and Anthony Edwards. Winner of Tony, Drama Desk, and Olivier Awards, "Children of a Lesser God" tells the story of an unconventional teacher at a school for the deaf and the remarkable woman he meets there. As their relationship heats up, so does their desire to connect — igniting a thrilling exploration of passion, intimacy, and what we surrender when we fall in love. Jackson, Ridloff and interpreter Candace Broecker-Penn stopped by the BUILD stage to discuss the play.
