Something terrible happened to Ana at a college party, but she can't remember what. In an unfortunately common tale, she must search for answers, wade through the muck of bureaucracy, and try to figure out her enemies from her allies on campus. But finding the truth and proving it has consequences for everyone around her. Who's willing to pay the price? This story from local playwright E.M. Lewis asks the audience to witness the humans behind these all too familiar events.

“In post-9/11 Newark, NJ, two teenagers who were brought to America as children become one another’s sanctuaries from harsh circumstances.

But as time hurtles on and complications mount, the young friends find that this act challenges and fractures the closest relationship either has ever had.” - Theatrical Rights Worldwide. Directed by Ricardo Guevara in partial fulfillment of the Senior Capstone for the BA in Theater.

The Effect
Written by Lucy Prebble

Mago Hunt Theater | Tickets Required

Wednesday-Saturday, February 19-22 | 7:30 p.m. and Sunday, February 23 | 2:00 p.m.

“Hearts racing. Minds reeling. Knees buckling. Connie and Tristan have palpable chemistry—or is it a side effect of a new antidepressant? They are volunteers in a clinical trial, but their sudden and illicit romance forces the supervising doctors to face off over the ethical consequences of their work. THE EFFECT takes on our pill-popping culture with humor and scintillating drama.” - Dramatists Play Service.

Pride & Prejudice
A Devised Adaptation

Mago Hunt Theater | Tickets Required

Wednesday-Saturday, April 9-12 | 7:30 p.m. and Sunday, April 13 | 2:00 p.m.

This reimagined production of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice is a collaborative, devised project in which we frame the text through contemporary fandom and the desires of the minoritarian reader. 

The longing looks between lovers from across ballrooms and the way they must touch one another with their eyes since to go any further would be forbidden resonate with the queer reader. Queer desire lingers in these glances, in the seconds before hands touch in a dance, and the centimeters of space between two palms. This production explores these charged scenes as moments of queer potentiality, claiming the novel as ours to read, love, and embody!
