Theatre Department presents Turning the Tide

From Andrew Fox, Redfern Arts Center:

The Keene State College Theatre Department presents Turning the Tide on Wednesday, November 17, through Saturday, November 20, at 7:30 p.m. in the Redfern Arts Center’s Main Theatre. Tickets are $10 for the general public, $8 for seniors and youth, and $6 for KSC students.

Inspired by a recent campus-wide sustainability initiative, Turning the Tide uses performance to address issues related to the global water supply. The show was created by KSC Theatre faculty member PeggyRae Johnson and visiting professor from Ghana Francis Nii-Yartey, who developed the script in close collaboration with the student performers. Using an innovative blend of theater and interpretive dance, Turning the Tide offers a powerful, extensively researched story about the Earth’s most precious and fragile resource.

Tickets and information are available at the Redfern Arts Center box office, 603-358-2168, or online at www.keene.edu/racbp, where you can also view many video clips from the season’s Visiting Artists repertoire.
