A Streetcar Named Desire is one of the most highly acclaimed works of the American Theatre. Illusion and
harsh reality collide when Blanche DuBois is forced to live in close quarters with
her brutish and insensitive brother-in-law, Stanley Kowalski. Their explosive clash
results in a gripping tale that explores love, lust, class struggle, and the fragility
of sanity. This faithful and searing production of a dramatic masterpiece should
not be missed.
A Short Play Festival directed by TROY Theatre students Whitney Bishop, Ashleigh Braswell,
Abby Dean, Kelsey Dunahoo, Lily Kate Gwin, Leanna Lake, Ingrid Lieb, and Dawson Tidwell.
A Full Dance Production integrating the art of Dance with Poetry and exploring the
relationship between the body's movement and the written word, with original choreography
by TROY Dance Students Ethan Tyler, Mary Elizabeth Adams, Alex Folkes, Julia Huskey,
Christina Cervone, Leia Riehl, Morgan Jensen, Taylor Griffith, and Emily Ward.
Showcasing dance as mass in motion with creative designs that compliment world-recognized
choreographers and seven new works, MOMENTUM takes the stage. Expect constant movement as dancers utilize friction, push their
bodies through space, and pull attention with complex movement.
The epic struggle between good and evil comes to life on stage in the musical phenomenon,
Jekyll & Hyde. Based on the classic story by Robert Louis Stevenson and featuring
a thrilling score of pop rock hits from multi-Grammy- and Tony-nominated Frank Wildhorn
and double-Oscar- and Grammy-winning Leslie Bricusse, Jekyll & Hyde has mesmerized
audiences the world over.
