| | BONNETS: HOW LADIES OF GOOD BREEDING ARE INDUCED TO MURDER (spotlight series)
By Jen Silverman
Directed by René Copeland
Wednesday - Saturday, April 22-25, at 7:30pm, Sunday, April 26th at 2:00
Blackbox Theatre, Kleist Center For Art & Drama
This play contains mature themes. Parental discretion is advised.
Proper women are supposed to be quiet, polite, and good. In Bonnets, by Jen Silverman, they are anything but. A riotous chorus of bonnet-clad women gleefully ushers us through a world of repression, desire, and quiet desperation, where love affairs spark and ignite, rules tighten then choke, and something dangerous begins to simmer beneath the surface. Across a shattering of time and space, women pushed to the edges of their own lives start to ask a simple question: what if they didn’t behave? What if they rebel?
Darkly funny, theatrical, and unapologetically punk, Bonnets explodes into a blood-soaked exploration of power, identity, and rebellion seen through eyes of three women in differing times and places: Claire an aristocratic woman in 17th century France, Webster a maid in Victoria England, and Prudence, a puritan girl in a Salem-esque community. As longing turns to action and civility twists and falls away, these ladies rewrite the rules in the most shocking ways possible.

| | BW WOMEN'S CHORUS AND MEN'S CHORUS
Lisa Miragliotta & Devon Steve, Conductors
Sunday, April 26, at 2:00 p.m.
Gamble Auditorium, Kulas Musical Arts Building
The Baldwin Wallace Men's and Women's Choruses will be collaborating to present Elaine Hagenberg's "Illuminare," her first extended work.
As the composer states, "It consists of five movements for SATB chorus and chamber orchestra. Using lesser-known sacred Latin, Greek, and English texts, the piece takes us through a season of beauty and goodness that has been disrupted by darkness and confusion. But as Light gradually returns, hope is restored, illuminating our future and guiding us in peace."
The program will also feature other well-known works by Hagenberg, alongside a short concert set presented by the BW Men’s Chorus.
We hope you will join us for this extraordinary collaboration! | Get Tickets | |
