The New American Theatre mourns the passing of Mira Furlan. TV fans may know her for her roles on Babylon 5 or Lost. We knew her as Antigone, in our 1995 production of the same name. Our heartfelt condolences go out to Mira's husband Goran Gaji, her son Marko, and her large group of cherished family and loved ones.

Happy New Year from your friends at The New American Theatre!
