UMD Theatre Students Are Heavy Hitters This Year
UMD Theatre released their 2018-2019 schedule and are looking forward to some big productions.
Here's the list from the UMD website.
Dear Finder 2018
A new imagining of the award-winning documentary play first performed 20 years ago, Dear Finder 2018 examines how we continue to struggle with the lessons and legacies of the Holocaust.
October 11-13 and 17-20 at 7:30 p.m. and October 14 at 2 p.m. (ASL interpreted) (Marshall Performing Arts Center – Mainstage Theatre)
Significant Other
Jordan is single, and finding Mr. Right is much easier said than done. The only thing harder than looking for love is supporting your besties when love finds them first.
November 8-10 and 13-17 at 7:30 p.m. and November 11 at 2 p.m. (ASL interpreted) (Marshall Performing Arts Center – Dudley Experimental Theatre)
Dance Works
Dance Works returns welcoming a range of dances in a variety of styles. Celebrate dance creativity from first-time dance-makers, experienced students and faculty, and guest groups from across campus.
November 29–December 1 at 7:30 p.m. and December 2 at 2 p.m. (Marshall Performing Arts Center – Mainstage Theatre)
Love’s Labor’s Lost
Promises declared amongst young friends with the best of intentions, until hormones take over and attraction rules. It’s a battle of the sexes — ‘boys meet girls = love’, but always with the Shakespearean twist.
February 7-9 and 13-16 at 7:30 p.m. and February 10 at 2 p.m. (ASL interpreted) (Marshall Performing Arts Center – Mainstage Theatre)
Time’s Up
Musical theatre. Medieval drama. What do these things have in common? The original piece, based on a 10th-century play and created by UMD students and faculty artists, puts a spin on pop culture, sex, and politics. This work is an adaptation of a Hrotsvit of Gandersheim play.
March 7-9 and 19-23 at 7:30 p.m. and March 24 at 2 p.m. (ASL interpreted) (Marshall Performing Arts Center – Dudley Experimental Theatre)
Sister Act
Based on the 1992 movie, the glorious disco musical follows Deloris on her madcap escape from the clutches of corruption, as gritty Philadelphia meets the sanctuary of the church.
April 18-20 and 24-27 at 7:30 p.m. and April 28 at 2 p.m. (ASL interpreted) (Marshall Performing Arts Center – Mainstage Theatre)
