By Aristophanes

By Roald Dahl Adapted for the stage by David Wood

Tensions, among other things, rise when the men of Sparta and Greece are given an ultimatum. During a war with no end in sight, the women of Greece deny their husbands carnal pleasures in hopes to quell their lust for war.

Music By Richard Rodgers Book & Lyrics By Oscar Hammerstein II By Lorraine Hansberry

A Raisin in the Sun is a timeless representation of hope and inspiration, of divergent dreams and conflicts within. A black family struggles to retain their dignity as they face racism when moving to an all-white neighborhod in 1950s America.

The 87th Annual Spring Dance Concert is rooted in a culturally diverse community. The Artist-In-Residence program features national and international artistry, providing an expansive environment for our emerging artists to develop.

A handsome cowboy competes with an illtempered ranch-hand for the affection of a lovely young farm girl in this timeless gem of American musical theatre, containing one of the most famous dance sequences of all time and won Rodgers & Hammerstein a Pulitzer Prize.
