2023-24 Performance Season: School of Drama
UNCSA has announced its 2023-24 performance season for the School of Drama.
The School of Drama continues its emphasis on representing a variety of playwriting voices and delving into topics that resonate today with a season that includes Lucy Prebble’s “Enron,” about one of the most notorious scandals in corporate history and the greed that precipitated it; Robert O’Hara’s “Barbeque,” a comedy in which five siblings in a dysfunctional family lure one of their own to a fake barbecue in order to stage an intervention; Octavio Solis’ “Lydia,” about an illegal immigrant, maid and caretaker who provides the key to unlocking shattering family secrets in 1970s El Paso; and alum Lo Feliciani Ojeda’s “a grief song: telegony & odisea,” about imagined events after “The Odyssey” ends. Rounding out the Drama season are Shakespeare’s “Twelfth Night, or What You Will” and a musical adaptation of “As You Like It” by American singer/songwriter Shaina Taub.
I’m sure there will be some surprises next season as we continue our journey to create an evolved learning environment and actors who are prepared for the today’s world.
Scott Zigler, Dean of Drama
“The School of Drama — and UNCSA as a whole — holds equity as a core value,” said Dean Scott Zigler. “It not only informs our selection of season offerings, but helps our students feel more represented in the work we present. I’m sure there will be some surprises next season as we continue our journey to create an evolved learning environment and actors who are prepared for the today’s world.”
Tickets and information are available at uncsa.edu/performances.
