Skylight’s Beyond Conversation has become a destination event for people that want more from their theater-going experience.
“It's different than an old-fashioned "talkback." People get a chance to talk-with special guests from the community who can offer insight about topics suggested by the play. It's become very popular, so much so that we've started streaming the chats so more people can experience them." - Sandee Grossman, Executive Director

Beyond Conversation immediately follows the scheduled performance and the Guest chats last about 20 minutes depending on audience interest and participation; topics vary weekly.
If you'd like to attend a Beyond Conversation chat in person, and don't have a ticket for that specific performance, you may enter after patrons exit. Due to limited space directly outside the theatre's front door, we ask that you wait on the sidewalk beyond the dining patio. Skylight Staff will be on hand to assist.
Starting in 2020, Beyond Conversation will be live streamed on Skylight's Facebook page. Check the show's start time and running time to have an idea of when the live stream will begin; there will be a short delay after the show to allow audience members who don't wish to stay to depart. Recordings of the chat are posted on our website.
