UWM Theatre: New Directions
Saturday, 11/07/2009 – 7:30 p.m.
Paradise by Glyn O'Malley
Directed by Janine Bannier
|
Set in 2002 in Jerusalem at the height of the intifada, Paradise tells the story of two high school students--one Palestinian the other Israeli--who are facing a dire time in their lives. From across a divided West Bank, Fatima and Sarah search for truth and question the validity of the war that defines and divides their worlds. In a collision that is both emotionally riveting and wonderfully theatrical, they face a fate that challenges the historical, religious, and national forces of entitlement that we all possess. Directed by UWM Theatre student Janine Bannier, with an all-student cast and production team, the one-act Paradise is a relevant and poignant look into a timeless conflict suitable for all audiences from middle school up.

UWM Theatre Lab/Works Series Under Construction: A Reading of a New Play by Laura Jacqmin
Thursday, 11/19/2009 – 2:00 p.m.
|
Watch as a play is formed before your very eyes and ears. Laura Jacqmin, winner of the 2008 Wendy Wasserstein award, is the UWM Center on Age & Community/Peck School of the Arts 2009 Artist in Residence, and she is in Milwaukee for three months, August 22-November 22, to create a new play. Her goal is to create a play about memory loss for the regional theater circuit that can also be used in medical education settings. The residency is designed to give her a deep learning opportunity in the area of aging and memory loss to inform the writing of the play. On Thursday Jacqmin hears the play read for the first time. At Sunday's matinee, she—and you—will hear the results of two days of rewriting. Directed by Ed Sobel, former director of new play development at Steppenwolf Theater.
