EQUUS
co-directed by PeggyRae Johnson and William Seigh
TUE-SAT / Oct 21-25 / 7:30 p.m., & 2 p.m. Oct. 25, Wright TheatreAn explosive play of passion and human behavior, Equus explores the connections between  an adolescent boy’s dangerous obsession and the agonizing mystery behind his unbearable acts of violence toward the horses he loved.  This international, award-winning play received the Tony Award for its Broadway premiere as well as the NY Drama Critics Award, and the NY Drama Desk Award. Reviews of the 2008 revival, starring Daniel Radcliffe of Harry Potter fame, solidified its reputation as a timeless classic and a cornerstone of contemporary drama. NOTE: Equus contains mature subject matter.

TUE-SAT / NOV 11-15 / 7:30 p.m. & 2 p.m. NOV 15, Wright TheatreThis Pulitzer Prize for Drama winner by David Auburn is a contemporary play about how mathematics can reveal the ways we struggle to quantify how people feel about each other, and ultimately about what can’t be proven. NOTE: Proof contains mature subject matter.
