Last night, Bwog’s Theater-Goer Extraordinaire Gabby Beans sat in on the opening night of  CUP’s “‘night, Mother.” The Glicker-Milstein Theater in the Diana Center could not have housed a more beautiful and devastating production this season. The CU Players’ production of Marsha Norman’s “‘night, Mother” is a challenging piece in every conceivable sense. The story unfolds slowly. The audience […]

Megan McGregor was on hand to catch the CU Players’ final performance of Let Us Go Out Into The Starry Night: Three Plays. Last night, Lerner’s Black Box seemed cozier than usual—a side effect of an encroaching audience. A nearly full house watched the cast of Let Us Go Out Into The Starry Night: Three […]

You know those coffins you’ve been seeing out on the steps for the past few weeks? Well apparently the CU Players have decided to finally lay the corpse to rest and have the funeral this weekend … over the course of three days in the Lerner Party Space of all places.

It is one thing to read the great works of Greek drama in Lit Hum, and quite another to bring them to life on stage – […]

Bwog theater critic Morgan Childs attended last night’s production of I Am My Own Wife. It takes a great deal of confidence–or perhaps recklessness–to break the rules of any contemporary play, much less one that has garnered significant attention across the national stage.  The sheer notion of staging Doug Wright’s 2004 I Am My Own […]

Looking for some student theater in your life? Bwog reviews the latest production from the CU Players. Having had only a month to put the production together, the CU Players (or “CUPS,” better-known for the plastic cups handed out during the activities fair) did a more-than-credible job of mixing the Bronx with the Bible Thursday […]

Procrastination doesn’t have to mean venturing far.  Lectures, laughs, and lame ledes, all on campus. Sunday Photo Scavenger Hunt: Run around campus with photography nerds and try to take the most super-awesomest pictures to win an unspecified prize!  4:00 PM.
