The Graduating Class of 2020 in Acting, Production Design and Technical Arts, and Set and Costume Design present a collective creation piece. They have been working on this original play for the past 2 years with directors Arianna Bardesono (Directing, 2007) and Zach Fraser.

Book your tickets!A chorus of timeless souls officiate over a ceremony, delving into lives that came long before us. Through ritual and theatrics, movement and song, puppets and projections, our ancestors are conjured into our theatre-temple, summoning to life their legacies, struggles and victories. A deeply intimate search to understand our past, present and future. This production is the result of an organic collaboration between the actors, designers, technical team, and faculty.
"We’re living in a fluid universe, in which the art of faith is not in taking one’s stand,
but in learning to swim.” – Alan Watts
