SUMMARY:Into The Woods
DESCRIPTION:Department of Theatre & Dance\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Into The Woods\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Book by James Lapine\nMusic and Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim\nDirected by Meaghan Deiter\n			\n				Buy Tickets\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				 \n\nPerhaps the stories we learned as children aren’t as simple as they once seemed. \nInto the Woods\, Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine’s witty and daring reimagining of classic fairy tales\, leaves behind the binary world of good versus evil and right versus wrong to explore what really happens after “happily ever after.” Little Red Riding Hood and Jack the Giant Killer confront the consequences of their choices\, and their decisions echo throughout their community\, while Cinderella and Rapunzel discover that getting what you want doesn’t always lead to happiness. \nSondheim and Lapine welcome us into an unconventional kind of fairy tale that challenges conventional thinking and the tales we thought we knew. After all\, witches can be right and giants can be good. It’s up to us to decide in this production from the Holy Cross Department of Theatre & Dance. \n\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				 \n\nEVENING PRESENTATIONS\n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				 \n\nFebruary 5 @ 7:30 p.m.February 6 @ 7:30 p.m.February 7 @ 7:30 p.m.February 12 @ 7:30 p.m.February 13 @ 7:30 p.m.February 14 @ 7:30 p.m. \n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				 \n\nMATINEE PRESENTATIONS\n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				 \n\nFebruary 8 @ 2 p.m.February 15 @ 2 p.m. \n\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Details\n \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				February 5-7\, 12-14 @ 7:30 p.m. February 8 & 15 @ 2 p.m. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Price\n \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				$20 Public | $15 Holy Cross Community \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Venue\n \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n\nLuth Concert HallThe Prior Performing Arts Center

SUMMARY:Six Characters in Search of an Author
DESCRIPTION:Department of Theatre & Dance\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Six Characters in Search of an Author\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				By Luigi Pirandello\nTranslated by Edward Storer\nDirected by Steve Vineberg\n			\n				Buy Tickets: Oct 30 - Nov 9\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				 \n\nIn this production from the Holy Cross Department of Theatre & Dance\, a theatre company preparing their latest production is disrupted by the appearance of six figures who claim to be characters abandoned by their author. They beg the director and actors to dramatize their story\, with results that are comic\, heartbreaking\, haunting and ultimately mysterious. \nLuigi Pirandello’s 1921 play challenges the assumptions of realism: can we really replicate human relationships\, with all their contradictions and complexity\, on the stage? Six Characters in Search of an Author is a modern classic that continues to exert a profound influence on theatre and film more than a century after it was first produced. \n\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				 \n\nEVENING PRESENTATIONS\n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				 \n\nOctober 30 @ 7:30 p.m.October 31 @ 7:30 p.m.November 1 @ 7:30 p.m.November 6 @ 7:30 p.m.November 7 @ 7:30 p.m.November 8 @ 7:30 p.m. \n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				 \n\nMATINEE PRESENTATIONS\n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				 \n\nNovember 2 @ 2 p.m.November 9 @ 2 p.m. \n\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Details\n \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				October 30-31 @ 7:30 p.m.Nov 1\, 6-8 @ 7:30 p.m.November 2 and 9 @ 2 p.m. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Price\n \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				$15 Public | $10 Holy Cross Community \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Venue\n \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n\nBoroughs TheatreThe Prior Performing Arts Center \n\n\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Explore More

SUMMARY:Ilya Vidrin and Company presents All(Most)

The original score—inspired by fragments of J. Brahms’ Cello Sonata—becomes both anchor and instigator\, echoing the tensions between security and uncertainty\, desire and anxiety. \nAt once intimate and expansive\, All(Most) invites audiences into a world where relationships are constantly forming\, fracturing\, and reforming—where nothing is fixed\, but everything is felt. \nCreative TeamArtistic Direction + Choreography: Ilya VidrinRehearsal Direction: Dara CapleyMusicians: Eric Seligman and Mel HsuDancers: Hannah Franz\, Myles Kercher\, Alexis Tsiramanes\, and Cassie Wang \n\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Details\n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				September 12\, 20256 p.m. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Price\n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Free entry\, registration required. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Venue\n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n\nBoroughs TheatrePrior Performing Arts Center

For the American energy company Enron\, it was worth billions . . . until it wasn’t. When CEO Kenneth Lay gives golden boy Jeff Skilling free rein at Enron\, the company soars to new financial heights\, while whiz kid Andy Fastow struggles to keep the bubble from bursting. If more is always better and rules are only for everyday folks\, how could they possibly lose?  \nThe British playwright Lucy Prebble’s darkly comic take on real-life events shows how ambition\, delusion and boy’s-club insiderism led to one of the biggest financial scandals of the new millennium.  \nScott Malia directs. \n\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				 \n\nEVENING PRESENTATIONS\n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				 \n\nTHU APR 3 @ 7:30 PMFRI APR 4 @ 7:30 PMSAT APR 5 @ 7:30 PMTHU APR 10 @ 7:30 PMFRI APR 11 @ 7:30 PMSAT APR 12 @ 7:30 PM \n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				 \n\nMATINEE PRESENTATIONS\n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				 \n\nSUN APR 6 @ 2:00 PMSUN APR 13 @ 2:00 PM \n\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Details\n \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				April 3\, 4\, 5\, 10\, 11\, and 12 at 7:30 PMApril 6 and 13 at 2:00 PM \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Price\n \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				$15 Public | $10 Holy Cross Community \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Contact the box office at priorboxoffice@holycross.edu for assistance with Card to Culture ticket purchases. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Venue\n \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n\nBoroughs TheatreThe Prior Performing Arts Center

DESCRIPTION:Department of Theatre & Dance\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Lacina Coulibaly\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Until the Lion Tells the Story…\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				 \n\nUntil the Lion Tells the Story… invites audiences to embrace the wisdom of Africa as a vital perspective in understanding our shared humanity. Drawing on the golden ratio and Fibonacci sequence\, Coulibaly builds a transformative narrative inspired by ancient Egyptian practices and the writings of African intellectuals like Omotunde Kalala and Cheikh Anta Diop. The work explores themes of history\, memory\, and self-renewal\, reminding us that reconnecting with our past is key to understanding ourselves. \nWith lighting design by Roderick Murray\, costume design by Oumar Ouedraogo\, and set design by Sylvester Akakpo\, this performance promises to be a rich blend of artistry and storytelling. Music inspired by African traditions and sound composition by Kimathi Moore further enhance the experience. \n\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				 \n\nAbout the Artist\n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				 \n\nBorn in Burkina Faso\, Lacina Coulibaly has crafted a career blending traditional African dance with contemporary influences\, creating a unique choreographic expression.

SUMMARY:Sweeney Todd
DESCRIPTION:Department of Theatre & Dance\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Sweeney Todd\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Music & Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim\nBook by Hugh Wheeler from an adaptation by Christopher Bond\n			\n				Buy Tickets: Feb 6 - Feb 16\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				 \n\n“Attend the tale of Sweeney Todd . . .”  \nIn the nearly half-century since Stephen Sondheim’s adaptation of a delectably lurid nineteenth-century melodrama premiered on Broadway\, it has become a modern classic. The title character is perhaps the most frightening and complex anti-hero in musical theatre\, a barber whose fury and despair over the loss of his innocent wife to a pitiless predator turns him into a serial killer with a witty and imaginative partner in crime\, his landlady\, Mrs. Lovett. Containing his most ambitious and challenging music\, Sweeney Todd is a fitting tribute to the great composer-lyricist who died in 2021.  \nDirected by Meaghan Deiter\, whose recent productions at the College include Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Oklahoma! and Sondheim’s Company.\n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				 \n\nEvening Presentations\n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				 \n\nTHU FEB 6 @ 7:30 PMFRI FEB 7 @ 7:30 PMSAT FEB 8 @ 7:30 PMTHU FEB 13 @ 7:30 PMFRI FEB 14 @ 7:30 PM **SAT FEB 15 @ 7:30 PM \n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				 \n\nMatinee Presentations\n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				 \n\nSUN FEB 9 @ 2:00 PMSUN FEB 16 @ 2:00 PM \n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				 \n\n** Enjoy the perfect Valentine’s Day date night at Sweeney Todd with a buy-one-get-one ticket deal!
