Spring 2009 Staged-Reading Series Concludes
Staged-readings, an advanced theatre course, will be performing “Rebel Voices,” its final act of the semester, at 4 p.m. April 25 in Violette Hall 1000.
“Rebel Voices” is an adaptation by Rob Urbinati of “Voices of the People of the United States,” by Howard Zinn and Anthony Arnove. It is a documentary that looks at the U.S. through the “prism of history.” A history of dissent in America emerges through the voices of the dissenters, such as Frederick Douglass, Susan B. Anthony, Sojourner Truth and Malcolm X.
The theatre class will also sponsor the inaugural Ten-Minute Playwriting Competition. Truman students, faculty and members of the Kirksville Community will perform in Baldwin Auditorium May 5-6. For more information contact Dana Smith at dasmith@truman.edu.
