Metamorphoses

ABOUT THE PERFORMANCE

Ovid’s timeless poem Metamorphoses leaps to stunning life in Mary Zimmerman’s Tony-nominated adaptation. Set in and around a central onstage pool of water that provides the hub of each of Metamorphoses’ many vignettes, Zimmerman’s bold retelling juxtaposes antiquity and modernity in an exploration of the power of theater across centuries. UMD Assistant Professor KenYatta Rogers directs this production, celebrating the persistence of narrative in the face of inevitable change.

Emma

ABOUT THE PERFORMANCE

Jane Austen's adored heroine gets the theatrical treatment in Emma. For centuries, Emma Woodhouse has charmed and delighted readers—and now she does so onstage. Emma is truly a timeless tale of love, making mistakes and learning to hold yourself accountable. Presented under the direction of Lisa Nathans, associate professor of voice and acting within the UMD School of Theatre, Dance, and Performance Studies, this production brings the world of Austen to joyous, irreverent life. You’ll never see Emma the same way again!
