Drama and Dance Events

"The Shape of Things" by Neil Labute
Directed by Marion A. Wright
April 4 - 7, 2013
Set on a provincial American campus, zany art student Evelyn meets geeky English literature major Adam. She seduces him and changes his image to please her. Over a period of time he becomes more popular as others see his desirability. He changes his behavior, diet, clothing, lifestyle and even his nose. Only in a final and shocking exhibition does Evelyn reveal the nature of her interest in Adam. "The Shape of Things" challenges society’s most deeply entrenched ideas about art, manipulation, and love.
