| Description: | In conjunction with the current exhibition "On the Road with the Beats," the Harry Ransom Center presents performances in the galleries of the museum theater program "Beat Voices" every Saturday and Sunday at 1 and 3 p.m. through August 2.
The series of brief plays are written, directed and performed by students in the Department of Theatre and Dance at The University of Texas at Austin. The pieces illuminate objects and people featured in the exhibition, including Beat figures Peter Orlovsky and Diane DiPrima, specific letters exchanged by Beat authors, and a painting by artist Alfred Leslie.
The performances allow audience members to engage with artifacts and historical figures in the exhibition through live performance.
