Culver-Stockton College Theater Department will bring semester’s first theater production outside this weekend, in light of COVID-19 restrictions. 

The department has moved its production from the Performing Arts Center to the front of the Science Center to allow for more room for the actors and audience to social distance. Professor David Lane, the director of the show mentioned, “I’m excited about that because that space looks a lot like a stage and the grassy area rises away, which will be a nice area for audience members to view the show.”

The show will be different from the usual plays put on during the 12-week session. Professor Lane explained “For this production, I have taken various scenes and monologues and reimagined them as all taking place in the same basic location, which is a cafe/restaurant.  So, in some ways it’s like the one-acts, but there will be no breaks between the various pieces.  As soon as one ends, the next one will begin.  I hope this give the production a little more of a cohesive feel even though a Shakespeare scene may be followed immediately by an absurdist comedy.”
