Real Mindful Ep 13: Responding to the Pandemic From the Heart with Cynda Rushton and Bryan Doerries

What can an ancient Greek play show modern audiences about the circumstances nurses have found themselves in over the course of the COVID-19 pandemic? That’s a question Theater of War Productions and Dr. Cynda Rushton, professor of nursing and bioethics at Johns Hopkins University, hope will be answered when The Nurse Antigone premieres to audiences around the world. A project by and for nurses, The Nurse Antigone presents dramatic readings of Sophocles’ Antigone on Zoom—featuring Taylor Schilling, Margaret Atwood, a chorus of nurses, and you. Mindful’s managing editor Stephanie Domet connected with the organizers, and we’re pleased to bring you that conversation. Stay curious, stay inspired.
