THE OREGON TRAIL
Mount St. Joseph University Theatre Arts
Nov. 7-16
Williams Recital Hall [Delhi Township]

Jane’s trapped in her middle school computer lab playing “The Oregon Trail” for what feels like hours. The game becomes life and rips us back to the trail, 1848, where we travel in a covered wagon with Jane’s great-great-grandmother. As Game moves us, back, forward, and back again, Now-Jane and Then-Jane’s sadnesses are delicately juxtaposed in this play-meets-video-game about depression, Then and Now. Contains adult themes and language.

MARIAN, OR THE TRUE TALE OF ROBIN HOOD
Mount St. Joseph University Theatre Arts
April 11-20
[Delhi]

Directed by Carolyn Guido Clifford

Robin Hood is (and has always been) Maid Marian in disguise, and leads a motley group of Merry Men (few of whom are actually men) against the greedy Prince John. As the poor get poorer and the rich get richer, who will stand for the vulnerable if not Robin? What is the cost of revealing your true self in a time of trouble?Modern concerns and romantic entanglements clash on the battlefield and on the ramparts of Nottingham Castle. A play about selfishness and selflessness and love deferred and the fight. Always the fight. The fight must go on. Contains adult situations.
