Theatre & Dance Mainstage 2021 - 2022
The 2021-2022 Season will be a season of imagination that we are embracing at every level. As we return to live performances, we are coming together to ensure the safety of our performers, crew members, staff, and patrons. Our productions are all rooted in ensemble work and embrace the concept of "ensemble" in many innovative iterations. With ensemble shows, the idea of a lead character becomes less important - secondary to the intentions of what can do: bring members of the cast and crew together to create a cohesive, entertaining story, in which audiences can experience, witness, and be moved.
Picasso at the Lapin Agile
By Steve Martin
April 22-23, 28-30
University Theatre, Theatre Hall
Directed By Alan Kopischke
This absurdist comedy places Albert Einstein and Pablo Picasso in a Parisian café in 1904, just before the renowned scientist transformed physics with his theory of relativity and the celebrated painter set the art world afire with cubism. In his first comedy for the stage, actor/comedian Steve Martin plays fast and loose with fact, fame, and fortune as these two geniuses muse on the century’s achievements and prospects.
Student-Directed Studio Productions (TBA)
