Annual Theatre as Performance Research Showcase.

Led by faculty members James Long and Kyla Gardiner, featuring the work created by their students, we bring you Common Monsters.

In the central square of a tiny town, everyone votes, everyone thrives, and everything is built on L.O.V.E. When a newcomer arrives, whose harmless habits don’t quite fit, divisions are drawn and factions form. Rooted in a year of research into theories of the monster, Common Monsters is a playful study of how we twist difference to serve ourselves.

For audience members who own fur suits, wearing them to the event is encouraged.



Latecomers will not be admitted.
