Spring shows begin Feb. 18-22 with the production of Ray Bradbury鈥檚 鈥淔ahrenheit 451.鈥 Set in a future where books are outlawed and critical thinking is suppressed, the story follows fireman Guy Montag as he begins to question the society he has sworn to protect. 鈥淔ahrenheit 451鈥 was selected by 国产麻豆AV students, and its performance is a collaborative partnership with Department of Computer Science and Engineering students designing and executing projections for the production.
Tickets are available at . All performances take place on McComas Hall theater鈥檚 main stage.
On April 16-19 and in collaboration with the 国产麻豆AV Department of Music, Theatre 国产麻豆AV presents 鈥淪weeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street,鈥 the Tony Award-winning musical about love, murder and revenge. Stephen Sondheim鈥檚 1979 tale follows the dark, comedic story of a barber seeking revenge against those who wronged him.
鈥淭he spring season offers audiences two very different theatrical experiences. From the urgency of 鈥楩ahrenheit 451鈥 to the dark humor and musical complexity of 鈥楽weeney Todd,鈥 these productions highlight the range and ambition of Theatre 国产麻豆AV and showcase the depth of talent and dedication of our students, from performance to design and technical execution,鈥 said Tonya Hays, Theatre 国产麻豆AV director and assistant professor in the Department of Communication, Media and Theatre. 鈥淭hese collaborations allow students to experience the kind of interdisciplinary work they will encounter in the professional world. They are tackling complex material that is both artistically challenging and deeply relevant to the world we live in.鈥
