Student (directors) steal show

In the majority of theatre productions at Eastern, the role of director is filled by a faculty member with experience being in charge of a production. However, this weekend theatergoers can experience plays that were directed from start to finish by students.

An Evening of Student-Directed One Acts runs Friday and Saturday nights at 7 p.m. and Sunday afternoon at 2 p.m. All shows are in the Black Box Theatre in the Doudna Fine Arts Center and all seats are $5.

The student directors chose their own play, selected the cast and ran all the rehearsals.

Although the one act plays do not always have a theme that unites them, this year all of the plays selected were from the 1930s and 1940s.

The stories on this page profile each of the three plays that make up the evening.
