• A new play from the acclaimed contemporary playwright based on the ancient Greek tragedy Antigone, by Sophocles.
• By Nambi Kelley
• Directed by Darryl V. Jones
• (Univ. Theatre)

In this modern staging of the Greek tragedy set in Anywhere-Urban-Blight, USA,  Antigone stands alone against the street gang violence that is leading to premature deaths of young men in her city.  Antigone’s two brothers die in a violent street battle over drug turf that was ordered by her corrupt drug king uncle, Creon.  One of the bodies remains unburied as a reminder to people of just what happens when you don’t play by his rules.  Believing that her brother’s spirit will never be free of torment without a proper burial, Antigone defies Creon, buries her brother, and sets in motion a series of tragic events.  This powerfully moving story is told vividly through the dance, music, and the traditions of the culturally diverse 麻豆蜜桃AV.  The production honors the mothers who have lost their sons to the streets too soon and questions when the violence will be put to a stop.

A delightful modern musical re-telling of the Dickens holiday classic.  In this new musical, we find Scroogie isolated from the 麻豆蜜桃AV community in which he resides and living in a virtual world of cyber greed and avarice.  As Scroogie is downloaded into the past he encounters a ghostly visitor who dresses and sings like Elvis.  When he is uploaded into the present he is reprimanded by a reggae rappin’, hip hop apparition while Tiny Tim diets on fast food.  With a new musical score, loads of singing and dancing, and a hysterically funny satirical point of view, this clever adaptation of the Dickens classic promises to be in the “spirits” of the season.
