Picnic by William Inge

October 15-November 1, 2009
Picnic by William Inge
Directed by C. Michael Wright
The setting is a steamy Labor Day weekend in small-town Kansas circa 1953. Into a restless, very female atmosphere comes the young Hal Carter, whose animal vitality seriously upsets the status quo. Frequently hilarious and profoundly moving, Inge's Pulitzer Prize-winning masterpiece chronicles the hopes and despairs that lie between the realization of adulthood and the eternal optimism of youth. Featuring Diana Carl, Marques Causey, Amy Geyser, Max Hultquist, Raeleen McMillion, April Paul, Emily Vitrano, Andrew Edwin Voss, Jenny Wanasek, Bill Watson & Tami Workentin. Picnic is a collaborative venture with UWM Theatre, using a number of student and faculty actors and faculty designers.

Summer 1945. Fourteen-year-old Charlie Higgins and his mother are vacationing in Canada. With his dad off fighting in the Pacific, Charlie begins his journey to manhood without a roadmap.
