Machinal

Join us for an extra performance of Machinal! Due to UMD’s campus closure on opening weekend, we were unable to share our production team’s fully realized design. Please join us on Sunday, February 28 at 3PM for a matinee performance that makes use of innovative technologies in digital performance, lighting and set modeling.
