Cymbeline: Opening Week & Sneak Peek

by Nicholas E. Sheets, dramaturg Lights, Actors, DRAMA! After months of research, rehearsals and a lot of candy, our show finally performs in front of a live audience. This is the moment. As the dramaturg my time with the audience is coming to a close and the show will now be experienced by YOU. You are the ultimate judge. Here are a few questions I would ask you to think about when you come see this performance:

  1. What is Teresa, the director, trying to show? Was she effective?
  2. What is the basic outline of Cymbeline? Did you understand the story?
  3. What ideas from the play made you wonder about something bigger? Or, what tickled your fancy?

BONUS: Michael Comp, the narrator for the Film noir style of Cymbeline put together two wonderful trailers for this show. Enjoy the trailers and then come see the show! Film Noir: Fairy Tale: If you've already seen the show, one or both concepts, please comment on your experience below!

Something Old, Something New, Something Borrowed, Something... Retold?

November 20, 2019 09:00 AM
by Samantha Baird, Dramaturg For centuries before the written record, people told stories, and retold them, and retold them again. While the moral of the story or general themes often stayed the same, there were bits and pieces lost or changed through history to fit the time period or the culture in which the story was being told. However, after the invention of the printing press, it became easier to write these stories down and publish them for a wider audience to enjoy and experience the same version of the story. But even with publication, there were different translations. Since that time, storytelling has neither ceased nor slowed down.
