  3. Sisyphus, a new play by senior Jessica Lopez, presented by the Lewis Center for the Arts’ Program in Theater & Music Theater


This new one-act play, written and directed by Princeton senior Jessica Lopez, asks: Why do people need to die? Over two thousand years ago, Aeschylus grappled with this question in his two-part telling of the tragedy of Sisyphus. Unfortunately, those plays were all but entirely lost to time, leaving us to come up with our own answers. In this re-imagination of the classic myth, one man struggles against the inevitability of death. Sisyphus promised to make a difference in the world and is ready to throw hands with the gods to keep his word.

Dates/Times: April 4, 5 & 6 at 7:30 p.m

Accessibility: The Drapkin Studio is an accessible venue. Guests in need of access accommodations are invited to contact the Lewis Center at least one week in advance at lewiscenter@princeton.edu
