Cowardly criminals, flamboyant show folk, social climbers and naive artistocrats combine with jazzy dance numbers and some of Cole Porter's finest songs in one of America's best-loved musicals Anything Goes , a show that has been dazzling audiences around the world since its original 1934 production starring Ethel Merman. Come set sail with us on this tuneful, fun-filled American madcap musical. Our production will feature one of the Theatre and Dance Department's professional Guest Artists as well as choreographed by Myra Daleng and musical direction by Homer Rudolf. Waiting for Godot is the story of Vladimir and Estragon, two tramps waiting for a long-standing appointment with the enigmatic Mr. Godot who they hope can answer their most personal questions about existence and tell them why they should continue on with their seemingly meaningless lives. The humorous bickering, games, quarrels, and stories that fill their waiting time are interrupted by the arrival of the brutal Pozzo and his slave Lucky.
Time passes and life goes on.
Beckett's genius is the way in which he uses poetry, humor, pathos and tragedy to address these essential questions of life. As Wings unfolds, we follow an older Emily on a flight more challenging than anything she has previously known. This strong and fiercely independent woman takes us into the strange, terrifying, shattered world of someone who has suffered a stroke. For Emily, time, place, language, speech, and thought have lost their meaning As Kopit constructs this beautiful mosaic of a play, we hare Emily's desperate need to comprehend, to communicate and to find the words that will make sence out of her splintered world, a feat that she must accomplish by reinventing herself and recovering her past. The moving and spititually uplifting play celebrates one woman's unwavering determination to affirm her joy in existence.
