THE ARTS ARE VIBRANT AT SU! We invite you to take a pause from daily life and join our creative community as we laugh, feel, and think together through artistic and creative expression. The 2019-2020 season offers opportunities to explore the past, present and future through musical performances, contemporary and classical theatre, exciting choreography, and adventurous directorial visions. Our students and faculty look forward to examining social issues relevant to our time, including race, identity, community, global responsibility and peace. We thank you for participating in our growing artistic community and encourage you to take a moment to celebrate these remarkable artists with us over the coming year! – Colleen Clark and John Raley Co-Chairs

Cornered like a caged animal, she exacts a horrific revenge and destroys everything she holds dear. The play challenges us to consider “How can there ever be any ending but this?” Directed by Matt Saltzberg November 2-3*, 2019 Musical Theatre Ensemble Holloway Hall, Great Hall 2 p.m. & 7:30 p.m. & *2 p.m. only RODGERS & HAMMERSTEIN: A GRAND NIGHT FOR SINGING This revue features over 30 songs from the iconic team of Rodgers and Hammerstein.

Seventy years later, her ground-breaking film and controversial career are re-discovered by academics seeking the spotlight. Two-time Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Lynn Nottage examines race, fame and identity in her 2011 send-up of screwball comedies and scholarly ambitions.

To an infectiously energetic rock beat, the show wows with songs like “Aquarius,” “Good Morning, Starshine,” “Hair,” “I Got Life” and “Let The Sun Shine.” Exploring ideas of identity, community, global responsibility and peace, Hair remains relevant as ever as it examines what it means to be a young person in a changing world.
