TEDxSwarthmore - Stephen Lang - On Beyond Glory: The Architecture of Acting
Stephen Lang will speak about the creative evolution of
Beyond Glory, a solo play that he began working on in
2003 and has performed more than
300 times. At heart, the play is a meditation on themes of courage, honor, fortitude, and humility. In his fifth decade as a professional actor, Beyond Glory represents Lang's most personally meaningful work. In "The Architecture of Acting," he will attempt to explain why in 18 minutes.
Actor and playwright Stephen Lang ('73) is perhaps best known for his role as Col. Quaritch in
Avatar. Other memorable roles in film include
Last Exit to Brooklyn and
Tombstone.
On Broadway, he has appeared in
Death of a Salesman and
A Few Good Men, among other plays.
