Photo Flash: Sonoma State Presents Student-Written THE SEANCE, 3/7-30
By: BWW News Desk
As part of its 'Water Works' performance season, Sonoma State University Department of Theatre Arts & Dance presents the premiere of 'The Séance' by Dylan Waite, directed by Jon Robin with dramaturgy by Celine Delcayre.
Sex, weed, and tacos abound in Fresno when Alex, a college student, comes to arid Fresno for the funeral of her sometime lover (also named Alex) and searches for a way to honor her memory. 'The Séance' is an often comic mosaic of personalities who struggle against the harsh environment of a literal and spiritual drought.

7:30 p.m. Thursday, March 7; Friday, March 8; Saturday, March 9; Thursday, March 28, Friday, March 29 and Saturday, March 30; 2 p.m. Sunday, March 10; and 6:30 p.m. Wednesday, March 27

Student playwright Dylan Waite's written works have been presented at the Kennedy Center American College Theater Festival, Bay Area Playwrights Festival and Sonoma State University's "Super Mega Molten Hot Lava New Play Festival." Waite also created the "Midnight Theater" series presented at Sonoma State University.
