The Tempest
Written by William Shakespeare
Adapted and Directed by David Wilkerson
Prospero uses magic to conjure a storm and torment the survivors of a shipwreck, including the King of Naples and Prospero’s treacherous brother, Antonio. Prospero’s slave, Caliban, plots to rid himself of his master, but is thwarted by Prospero’s spirit-servant Ariel. The King’s young son Ferdinand, thought to be dead, falls in love with Prospero’s daughter Miranda. Their celebrations are cut short when Prospero confronts his brother and reveals his identity as the usurped Duke of Milan. The families are reunited, and all conflict is resolved. Prospero grants Ariel his freedom and prepares to leave the island.

Title of Show
Music and Lyrics by Jeff Bowen
Book by Hunter Bell
Jeff and Hunter, two struggling writers, hear about a new musical theatre festival. However, the deadline for submissions is a mere three weeks away. With nothing to lose, the pair decides to try to create something new with the help of their friends Susan, Heidi and Mary on the eighty-eights. With the cast in place, Jeff and Hunter begin a conversation about what to write about. Eventually, Jeff suggests they write about what to write about. They make a pact to write up until the festival's deadline and dream about the show changing their lives. [title of show] -- taken from the space on the festival's application form which asks for the "[title of show]" -- follows Hunter and Jeff and their friends on their journey through the gauntlet of creative self-expression. In the span of 90 minutes they write and perform their show at the festival and learn lessons about themselves as people, friends and artists. (Concord Theatricals)
Performed in Deborah K. Anderson Studio Theatre March 23 at 7:30pm, March 24 at 2pm, and March 25 & 26 at 7:30pm

The Ruminants
Written by Dipti Bramhandkar
With only weeks left in her senior year, Bekka questions whether she has done enough to make a difference for animal rights at her university. She is president of PETA and has organized numerous protests, but nothing seems to change. With her legacy on the line, she plans to take action in a way no one can ignore, but what will the cost be for those who join her and for those she tries to help? The Ruminants by Dipti Bramhandkar is a new play that explores protest, privilege, legacy, and a talking rabbit.
The Ruminants is being developed as part of The Farm Theatre’s College Collaboration project.
Join us in Tucker Theatre April 4 through 6 at 7:30pm and April 7 at 2:00pm.
