Estimated reading time: 1 minutes
The University celebrated playwright Arthur Miller’s career and unveiled proposed architectural renderings for the new theater that will bear his name during a Nov. 15 gathering in Manhattan spearheaded by another alumnus, two-time Tony winner Jeffrey Seller. Alumnus and Regent Emeritus Robert Nederlander and his wife, Gladys, hosted the event at the Richard Rodgers Theatre, where graduates and faculty members of the School of Music brought Broadway, opera, dance, jazz and classical violin to “Michigan on Broadway: A Tribute to Arthur Miller.” Shown here are President Mary Sue Coleman, Miller, and actor and alumnus James Earl Jones. The Arthur Miller Theatre, seating 250, will be a flexible space with full scene and costume shops, and dressing rooms. It will be part of Walgreen Center on North Campus and is made possible in part by a $10 million gift from alumnus Charles Walgreen Jr. (Photo by Micaela Walker)
