Piedmont College Theatre is proud to announce its Spring production season. Opening the season will be Alpha Psi Omega's production of "An evening of One-Acts." This production includes Susan Glaspell's "Suppressed Desires," directed by senior Jason Lehman, and Charles Kray's "A Thing of Beauty" directed by junior David Limbach.
"Suppressed Desires," set during the 1920's, pokes fun at the new craze for psychoanalysis. In the play, we see the "ingenious interpretations of dreams that were particularly popular." The playwright, Susan Glaspell, is an "undeservedly lesser-known contemporary" of Eugene O'Neal. Starring Seth Howard, Chris Miller, and Jada Stone, this production is Lehman's directorial debut and is part of the graduate requirements for a Bachelor of Fine Arts.
The other, "A Thing of Beauty,"
is the story of a Nazi colonel in search of a renegade Jew who is believed
to be hiding out in a Carmelite Convent under a false name as a Carmelite
nun. Based on the real life of Edith Stein, this story is a powerful display
of the internal emotional battles that many were facing during World War
II. "Beauty" is Limbach's second directorial project, proceeding one of
last years one-acts titled "If Men Played Cards as Women Do" by George
S. Kaufman.
Playing dates for "An Evening of One Acts" were Feb. 11-13 at 8:00 p.m. and Feb. 14 at 2:00 p.m.
