Ways and Means PosterWays and Means

By Noël Coward
Directed by Braden Barber

Ways and Means is a witty, effervescent comedy set in the 1930’s, in which charming but feckless couple Toby and Stella Cartwright are going to be evicted from a friend’s luxurious villa on the French Riviera. Penniless and wracked with gambling debts, the two plot, wheedle, and bicker with each other in a last-ditch effort to save their reputation.

 

the Flattering Word posterThe Flattering Word

by George Kelly
Directed by Sienna Abbott

The Flattering Word is a passionate, satirical comedy set in a small town in Ohio in 1905 in which a vaudeville actor disrupts the world of a rural pastor who believes that the church is directly opposed to the theater. The actor uses flattery to open the minds of the parsonage residents, revealing that perhaps the pastor and the actor are more alike than they initially thought.

Drama at the ³Ô¹ÏÍø

Drama programs at ³Ô¹ÏÍø serve as a foundation for graduate study, professional work in theater and mass media, a teaching career in either elementary or secondary education, or, by proper choice of electives, graduate work in foreign language, English literature, dramatic literature, journalism, communication or comparative literature.

About ³Ô¹ÏÍø Drama

A person committed to the study of theater within the framework of a liberal education must be prepared to work toward two goals: first, a thorough competence in the basic skill of dramatic expression and interpretation; and concurrently, a view that comprehends dramatic art as it relates to, expresses, and extends the surrounding culture.
