The performing and fine arts department will present Georg Büchner’s Woyzeck on February 26-28 and March 1 in Mago Hunt Center Theater. All performances are at 7:30 p.m., with two performances set for Saturday, March 1, at 2 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. No Sunday matinee is scheduled for this performance. Admission is $10 for adults and $5 for students and seniors. For reservations starting February 17, call the Hunt Center Box Office at 7287.
Woyzeck is an intriguing tale of an everyman being pushed and pulled in a world that tests and manipulates him in every way. Written in 1836, this gripping and engrossing story of one man’s struggle has been produced in many languages and countries, and this version has been adapted by the director especially for our time. The performance contains adult language and stage violence.
The cast, all University of Portland students, is made up of Michael Rexroat (Franz Woyzeck), Danielle Renella (Marie), Emily Biggs (Andrea), Jennifer Beierle (Margaret), Tyler Hunt (Karl the Idiot), Hope Dorman (Katey), Tim Dobson (Grandmother), Samantha Steele (Patient 1), Doug Blair (Patient 2), Jeffery Phillips (The Doctor), Logan Matthews (The Captain), Jacob Orr (The Major), Annie Ganousis (The Sergeant), and Peter Sotos (The Attendant).
