2024-2025 Theatre and Dance Production Season
* FALL 2024 *
A Beautiful Day in November on the Banks of the Greatest of the Great Lakes
by Kate Benson
Directed by Caley Chase
A Thanksgiving play called by sports announcers. Every family holiday is full of tradition. Every family holiday is full of strife and joy. Where do our traditions come from? Why do we hold so tightly to them? Join the family at Wembley Stadium as they play the game called Thanksgiving Day: a day of gratitude in which we watch some people knock some other people down in order to get the ball over the line.
UT Dance Repertory Theatre presents Fall For Dance
Award-winning student dance company, Dance Repertory Theatre, returns to the stage in a series of new works of choreography by students and guest artists.
James and the Giant Peach
Adapted for the stage by David Wood from the book by Roald Dahl
Directed by Rodolfo Robles Cruz
In this delightful stage adaptation, Roald Dahl’s classic tale is faithfully told by James himself along with the insect characters – Miss Spider, Old-Green-Grasshopper, Centipede, Ladybird and Earthworm. The play begins at the end of the story, when James and his friends are living in the giant peach stone in Central Park, New York.
