Sunday, October 12 // 3:00 pm “To be or not to be”…Hamlet is a philosopher’s gold mine, but it’s also a ghost story, a comedy, a thriller, and a seven-murder tale of revenge. For four hundred years, audiences of all ages (and both sexes) identify with this troubled Prince as he copes with the loss of his father, his mother’s remarriage, and life’s biggest questions. Something is rotten in the state of Denmark, and Hamlet, who seeks to uncover the source of the stench, struggles to discover what is real and what is illusion in this world turned upside down. “There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so.”
NATIONAL PLAYERS in 1984 Saturday, January 24 // 8:00 pm “Big Brother is watching you!” This great modern classic of “Dystopia” is the nightmarish world dominated by Big Brother and his vast network of agents. Their mission…to suffocate freedom in a totalitarian world, is timelier than ever, and its warnings more powerful. Tickets are $20 (general admission), $17 (students/seniors/Fac-Staff), and $12 (children under 13). Series subscription: $34 (See both shows…a $6 savings!)
