UHM Kennedy Theatre Announces 2021 Virtual Productions

Kennedy Theatre and the Department of Theatre + Dance are delighted to present a never-before offering of a "Dance Gallery" - a curated retrospective of celebrated dances and dance concerts produced by our dance program in the last several seasons that were captured in our video archive.

This "encore" is a rare chance for student dancers to watch their own performances, for alumni to look back at peak moments from their time in the program, and for our patrons to re-watch favorite performances or enjoy ones that they may have missed seeing live in the theatre. Ticket holders will peruse the virtual gallery and click on which dance concerts or dance pieces they'd most like to view during their "gallery walk."

Ondine - Primetime Series Production

February 26-28, 2021

FRI/SAT 7:30pm

SUN 2:00pm

ONLINE

Directed by MFA Directing Candidate Thea Wigglesworth

Translated and Adapted from Ondine by Jean Giradoux

"What does it mean to be human?" is the question posed to the audience with Ondine, a classic French play by Jean Giraudoux, newly translated and adapted by MFA candidate Thea Wigglesworth. It brings triumph and sacrifice to the stage while allowing the audience to be swept up by the drama that unfolds when the desires of human and nature collide. An intersection of humor and heartbreak, this inventive retelling of a classic German fairytale invites patrons to reflect on the parables of the past as presented through a 21st century humanist gaze.
