| | Our Country's Good
May 9-12
Brunner Main Stage Theatre
Directed by Jeff Coussens
Set against the backdrop of Australia's penal colony in the late 18th century, this thought-provoking drama is a poignant examination of the redemptive power of theatre. As the struggling colony grapples with issues of justice and rehabilitation, a group of convicts and British officers embark on an audacious project: to stage a play that will not only entertain but also enlighten and lift their spirits. Amid the harsh realities of their existence, the production becomes a beacon of hope, revealing the shared humanity that transcends societal divisions.
Through the exploration of the relationships between captives and captors, Our Country's Good masterfully navigates themes of oppression, self-discovery, and the unifying force of art, underscoring the enduring truth that even in the harshest of circumstances, the spark of creativity can illuminate the path to redemption.

| | Take Your Seat
Inspired by New York City’s Off-Broadway venue New World Stages, the Brunner Theatre Center, which opened in fall 2016, houses three outstanding performance spaces, scene shop, costume shop, dressing rooms, a conference room/theatre library, and the theatre department administrative/faculty offices.
Arts enthusiasts, members of the community, and alumni are invited to “take your seat.” Donors can commemorate themselves, a friend or family member, organizations, a special occasion, or business with a name plate that will be placed on a seat in the Brunner Theatre Main Stage Theatre. The nameplates will accommodate up to 50 characters. Center section seats are $250 and side seats are $150.
Supporting the Brunner Theatre through the seat naming campaign creates a lasting legacy for the donor in one of the most public spots on campus.
Specific seats are available on a first come, first serve basis. Seat naming is not a reservation of the seat itself for future events. Tickets to Brunner Theatre events are purchased separately. You will see a proof of your plaque before it is created.
All donations are tax deductible and support the work of the Augustana College Department of Theatre Arts.
