Heidi, Otterbein University Theatre And Dance Department Nov 1991

Heidi, Otterbein University Theatre And Dance Department

1991-1992 Season

Heidi is a fresh and delightful play of the Swiss Alps. Heidi is one of the happiest characters in all literature to present before children. Lucille Miller's play depicts her vividly as a winning and personable little girl who is full of fun and mischief but whose influence is nevertheless wholesome and good. Her scenes with the calm uncle and with the Sesemann family are especially dramatic and make an eloquent appeal to every heart. The play follows the book closely, retaining all the well-loved episodes that keep this story eternally alive in the hearts of children. https://www.dramaticpublishing.com/heidi-hb2000

Blue Window, Otterbein University Theatre And Dance Department Jul 1991

Blue Window, Otterbein University Theatre And Dance Department

1991 Summer Theatre

An Off-Broad way hit and winner of the prestigious George and Elisabeth Marton playwriting award, as well as the Los Angeles Drama Critics Award, Blue Window is a funny, inventive account of the lives of seven New Yorkers gathered together for a Sunday evening dinner party. During the course of the play we get an intimate glimpse of the before, during and after of the party and its wonderfully bizarre party guests; most of whom are artists of various kinds. There’s a narcissistic actor, an aspiring musician, a noted writer, a family therapist, a secretary and a parachuting instructor; all …

A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Forum, Otterbein University Theatre And Dance Department Jun 1991

A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Forum, Otterbein University Theatre And Dance Department

1991 Summer Theatre

A revival of this bawdy musical hit. It is madcap farce at its best. Based on the Roman play by Plautus this modern adaptation with music and lyrics by Tony Award winner Stephen Sondheim combines the hilarious nonsense of vaudeville with a variety of musical memorables such as Comedy Tonight and Everybody Ought to Have a Maid. Laughs for the entire family!


Uncommon Women & Others, Otterbein University Theatre And Dance Department May 1991

Uncommon Women & Others, Otterbein University Theatre And Dance Department

1990-1991 Season

Uncommon Women and Others (1977), is the first play by noted 20th-century American playwright Wendy Wasserstein. Alumnae of Mount Holyoke College (Wasserstein's alma mater) meet for lunch one day in 1978 and talk about their time together in college. The play is thus a series of flashbacks to the 1972-1973 school year as seven seniors and one freshman try to "discover themselves" in the wake of second-wave feminism.

Man Of La Mancha, Otterbein University Theatre And Dance Department May 1991

Man Of La Mancha, Otterbein University Theatre And Dance Department

1990-1991 Season

Man of La Mancha is a 1965 musical with a book by Dale Wasserman, lyrics by Joe Darion, and music by Mitch Leigh. It tells the story of the "mad" knight Don Quixote as a play within a play, performed by Cervantes and his fellow prisoners as he awaits a hearing with the Spanish Inquisition. The work is not and does not pretend to be a faithful rendition of either Cervantes' life or of Don Quixote.

Much Ado About Nothing, Otterbein University Theatre And Dance Department Mar 1991

Much Ado About Nothing, Otterbein University Theatre And Dance Department

1990-1991 Season

Much Ado About Nothing is a comedy by William Shakespeare thought to have been written in 1598 and 1599, as Shakespeare was approaching the middle of his career. The play was included in the First Folio, published in 1623.

By means of "noting" (which, in Shakespeare's day, sounded similar to "nothing" as in the play's title, and which means gossip, rumour, and overhearing), Benedick and Beatrice are tricked into confessing their love for each other, and Claudio is tricked into rejecting Hero at the altar on the erroneous belief that she has been unfaithful. At the end, Benedick and Beatrice …

Good, Otterbein University Theatre And Dance Department

1990-1991 Season

Good is an award-winning play in two acts written by British playwright Cecil Philip Taylor. Good has been described as the definitive piece written about the Holocaust in the English-speaking theatre. Set in pre-war Germany, it shows how John Halder, a liberal-minded professor whose best friend is the Jewish Maurice, could not only be seduced into joining the Nazism, but step-by-rationalised-step end up embracing the final solution justifying to his conscience the terrible actions.
