          Shakespeare's most poetic comedy, set in the mythical land of Illyria. Separated from her twin brother, Viola (disguised as a boy to protect her virtue at court) is charged by Duke Orsino to woo the fair Olivia on his behalf. With wit and romance, high comedy and low tricks, deception and misleading identities, Shakespeare's most endearing characters weave a colorful and spirited tale of love.

          This great tragedy centers on the power struggle among the women of Bernarda Alba's family after the death of her husband. Lorca once wrote "to burn with desire and keep quiet about it is the greatest punishment we can bring on ourselves."  The play explores the darkness at the heart of Alba's repressed household and the passionate yearning for freedom.

March 11 at 2:00 p.m.

Morrison Center Main Hall

          This classic comic opera, subtitled "The Lass that Loved a Sailor," is from the renowned musical duo of Gilbert and Sullivan. Come meet the unforgettable Dick Deadeye, Sir Joseph Porter, Ralph Rackstraw, Little Buttercup, and a cast of thousands (well, maybe aboutY30!) in this hilarious send-up of the Royal Navy and rank and privilege in Victorian England. Produced jointly with the Department of Music.

THE MEMORANDUM
By Vaclav Havel

Directed by Ann Klautsch
April 12-13 at 7:30
April 18- 21 at 7:30 p.m.
April 22 matinee at 2:00 p.m.
Stage II

          Now the distinguished President of the Czech Republic, Havel established his reputation as a playwright with this dark and lacerating satire. Within the walls of a large, faceless institution, certain factions try to establish a new "language" for greater precision and efficiency. As the "language" proves more and more incomprehensible, it seems to meet with less and less resistance. With overtones of Orwell's 1984, Havel investigates the illogical, indifferent, and impersonal world of bureaucracy.
