A Body In The O

Theatre

October 13, 2023 at 7:30pm

A night with renowned performance artist Tim Miller

Climb along with performer Tim Miller inside the giant O of the Hollywood sign - or as Shakespeare conjured it "the wooden O" of the theatre, where we must try to take on the big themes of our time - as Miller performs a new work created from his brand new book of performances and stories A Body in the O.
Jumping off from a day when Miller scrambled up inside of the O of the Hollywood sign and imagined the performance space tree house of his dreams , A Body in the O journeys through the hoops of the Department of Homeland Security, a queer boy's truthtelling, the human heart's mysterious Os and finally a wedding day as Miller imagines the full possibility of performance that changes the world inside these wooden Os!
Bring your copy of Tim Miller's book to be signed at the book signing following the performance.

This fundraiser for Theatre Arts students is brought to you by the FCC Office of Student Equity and Success.

Body Maps

Theatre

October 14, 2023 at 2:00pm

Renowned artist Tim Miller guides this devised student theatre performance

Body Maps is an original performance created from the stories of the performers themselves-from their dreams, memories and desires -as they map that charged border between our bodies and society...our narratives and our politics...our selves and others. Telling our own story doesn't separate us from other people, it connects us; it makes the theatre of right now.

Love/Sick

Theatre

November 11, 12, 18, 19 at 7:30pm
November 13, 20 at 2:00pm

Love/Sick by playwright John Cariani is a collection of nine quirky and often sad vignettes about the joy and pain of falling in and out of love. Each vignette tells the story of one couple in the midst of passion and despair and together they show the cycle of the highs and lows of relationships.

“I'm not sentimental--I'm as romantic as you are. The idea, you know,
is that the sentimental person thinks things will last--the romantic
person has a desperate confidence that they won't.”
― F. Scott Fitzgerald, This Side of Paradise
