That Day is a student-written, student-directed play born from the vision of Nina Sawyer '01. She translated and adapted a short story about a little boy's experience in Nazi-occupied Germany--which constitutes the first part of the play--and wrote the second half herself. That Day tackles the experience of two parallel families, one in France and the other in Germany, who for some unclear reason are suffering from World...

...Written by Jacobean playwright Thomas Middleton in the early 17th century, Women Beware Women might seem at risk of being somewhat out-of-date: the tricky iambic pentameter of the dialogue and rather archaic betrothal practices are more reminiscent of Shakespearean times than they are of modern day America. However, the production is at times so wicked, so sensationalist (think lots of incest and death), that the audience can't help but be captivated. Whether it be the orgy at the end of the first act or the well-choreographed (but comedic) swordplay that results in death and still more...
