Wait Until Dark is full of action and heightened reality. In our dramaturgy guide within the show program, we asked audience members to locate a select few handheld props and set pieces. These items that are utilized to help Susy, the main character who is blind, overcome her tormentors.

These items are:

  • Light bulb
  • Telephone
  • Blinds
  • Pipe
  • Ashtray
  • Table / couch
  • Knife
  • Washing Machine
  • Desk lamp
What other 4 senses is Susy using if she can’t see as she interacts with these props and set pieces?

Take a look at the photo of the set to see if you were able to locate all the props/set pieces!

REJOICE! Finding Joy in Every Circumstance

By Jessie Pew
December 03, 2021 12:00 AM
Christmas Around the World is a well-established tradition at Brigham Young University, with this year’s production marking its 60th appearance in the BYUarts season. While primarily a cultural celebration, there is always a theme arching over the production and informing the text and music performed in between the dance numbers. Previous years have seen themes, most recently, “A Light in the Window” (2019), which highlighted the importance of cultural roots being maintained despite immigration, and promoted empathy and compassion for those who have had to leave their ancestral homes against their will. With such a lofty preceding theme, the 2021 theme, “Rejoice” can seem rather simple in comparison. However, I think more than ever, today we are aware that rejoicing is not an inherently simple action.

Dramaturgs' Note: Celebrating Christmas Around the World

By Emma Rollins
December 03, 2021 12:00 AM
Rejoice, we’re back in person. Rejoice, the semester is almost over. Rejoice, that your family member is coming back to health. Rejoice, Jesus wins in the end. Whatever it is, rejoice. The theme of Christmas Around the World this year is Rejoice. But rejoicing isn’t always joyful. Just as Adam and Eve had to learn joy from pain, good and bad often go hand in hand. So while we celebrate this Christmas season, let’s reflect back on what we’ve had to experience to help us rejoice. In this modern day and age, the pain and hardship we see with the Covid-19 pandemic have affected us all. The announcement of a global pandemic, and finally the world moving forward, has been a major part of our history. March 12, 2020, will forever be remembered by many as the day Brigham Young University shut down and everyone left. Not knowing what the future would hold or how long the hardships were going to last, we pushed forward. The pandemic remained dominant and still rages on. With the 60th anniversary of Christmas Around the World being postponed, we learned even more what that pain can do to foil our joy and rejoicing.
