The Prom

Four eccentric Broadway stars are in desperate need of a new stage. So, when they hear that trouble is brewing around a small-town prom, they know that it’s time to put a spotlight on the issue…and themselves.

The town’s parents want to keep the high school dance on the straight and narrow—but when one student just wants to bring her girlfriend to prom, the entire town has a date with destiny.

On a mission to transform lives, Broadway’s brassiest join forces with a courageous girl and the town’s citizens and the result is love that brings them all together.

Winner of the Drama Desk Award for Best Musical, THE PROM expertly captures all the humor and heart of a classic musical comedy with a message that resonates with audiences now more than ever.

Julius Caesar

Shakespeare’s epic tragedy, Julius Caesar tells the story of the conspiracy to assassinate Caesar, and the civil war that followed. In Julius Caesar, bloody and brutal decisions are weighed against honor and ambition. Our production is a modern reimagining of the famous tale of power, loyalty and the consequences of betrayal. It’s a 400-year-old play, that feels as contemporary as today’s headlines.

The role of Julius Caesar will be played by EWU Theatre professor, Sara Goff.

By William Shakespeare

Directed by Jeff Sanders

SILENT SKY

By: Lauren Gunderson
Directed by: Sara Goff

Silent Sky tells the true story of Henrietta Leavitt, the astronomer ahead of her time. It is 1900 and Henrietta has the opportunity to work at Harvard University as a human computer, one of Edward Pickering’s “harem,” mapping the stars but receiving no scientific credit. Silent Sky is the poignant tale of a woman’s dedication to the stars, her unswerving determination to discover them in a man’s world, and the human touch that makes life under the vast sky beautiful and timeless.
