Monday Night Guest Speaker Series

Each Monday night the Playwrights Lab at Hollins University and Mill Mountain Theatre present a talk by a prominent working professional theatre artist. This year, due to the COVID-19 pandemic and social distancing the Monday Night Guest Speaker Series will be presented live via Zoom.

This week's guest is Neil McArthur.

McArthur has been working in theatre, TV, film, and recorded music since 1971. He collaborated with Clarke Peters on a show based around the music of Louis Jordan called Five Guys Named Moe, which ran in the West End in London for six years. A Broadway transfer followed and the show won many awards. McArthur also collaborated with Playwrights Lab program director Todd Ristau to write the script for a stage show based on the life of Jerry Lee Lewis, Great Balls Of Fire, which played in regional theatres and in the West End. His folk band The Green House Band recently released a double CD anthology, and he continues to write songs with colleague Ben Brierley.
