Faith and Arts Symposium to feature Broadway talent

Christopher Smith

Liberty University’s Department of Theatre Arts, in association with the School of Communication & Creative Arts, is hosting a Faith and Arts Symposium, “Communicating Faith to a Skeptical World,” on Nov. 17 from 7-9 p.m. in the Tower Theater. The event is free and open to the public.

Christopher Smith, a celebrated Broadway musical creator, writer, composer, and lyricist, is the featured speaker. The symposium will also include a discussion panel of Liberty faculty with professional experience in music, theater, film, studio art, and writing.

Smith is one of only a few writers of his generation to have occupied the top position in all three writing disciplines of a Broadway show. His production, “Amazing Grace,” based on the life of John Newton, is the first Broadway musical to feature the spiritual redemption of a historical figure as its central plot. The Associated Press hailed the production as “inspirational, beautiful, emotional, and exhilarating.”
