  • QueertopIA, a cabaret of queer love, sweeps over the Mill

    The inaugural QueertopIA featured eight performers: Lou Barker, Joe Cool, Grant Freeman, Cody Howell, Jeffrey Mead, Nat Mullins, Izzy Neuhaus, and Debora Tiemens. Various styles of art flowed together in a collaboration of creativity. Spoken word, staged readings, short monologues, and musical acts all lit up the stage.

  • Workshop performance of 'Monument (Four Sisters)' commemorates the everyday

    Dinosaur-shaped vitamins, reproduction processes of coral, and cartoon sloths. These seemingly absurd details created the core of the workshop play Monument (Four Sisters), which was produced in the Theater Building’s Thayer Theater on June 13 and 14.

  • Riverside Theater brings a historical river expedition to the stage in ‘Men on Boats’

    The play follows the 1869 journey of John Wesley Powell and a group of explorers in their expedition to survey the country along the Colorado River and the then unknown (by white settlers) Grand Canyon. Full of excitement and grit, characters face extreme obstacles and grapple with doubts around exploration into the unknown.
