Three Sisters

Faculty-Directed mainstage productions in the Drama Lab

On our mainstage:

Olga and Irina and Masha are restless. Trapped in menial jobs and uninspiring relationships, they yearn for more than their small provincial Russian town has to offer. Through brilliantly-drawn characters, heartfelt language and resonant moments taken from everyday lives,  Anton Chekhov's beloved play, in a new translation by Marina Brodskaya comes alive on the OCC maistage, directed by Pete Uribe.

Assassins

Faculty- Directed mainstage productions in the Drama Lab

 

Bold, original, disturbing and alarmingly funny, this multiple Tony Award-winning tour-de-force, combines Stephen Sondheim's signature blend of intelligently stunning lyrics and beautiful music. Assassins is a panoramic story of our nation's culture of celebrity and the violent means some will use to obtain it, embodied by America's four successful and five would-be presidential assassins.
