Theatre: The Importance of Being Earnest

April 11
7:30 pm

Jay W. Lees Courage Theatre, Jewett Center for the Performing Arts and Emma Eccles Jones Conservator

Two bachelors, Jack Worthing and Algernon Moncrieff, invent alter egos to escape their social obligations and pursue love. Their elaborate deceptions lead to a hilarious tangle of mistaken identities, societal absurdities, and the delightful skewering of aristocratic pretensions. This timeless play critiques social hypocrisy with unparalleled charm and humor, making it a masterclass in comedic writing.

Spring Dance Concert: PIVOT POINT

April 24
7:30 pm

Sorenson-Fenton Studio, Florence J. Gillmor Hall

Pivot Point uses contemporary dance forms to reimagine the overlapping impulses of transformation found in the literature and mythology of Pygmalion, Coppelia, and Der Sandmann. The work invites audiences to reconsider what it means to connect, to be real, and to be seen in the flesh.

Opera Studio Performance: Il mondo della luna

April 25
7:30 pm

Vieve Gore Concert Hall, Jewett Center for the Performing Arts and Emma Eccles Jones Conservatory

A telescope, a fake moon landing, and a house full of secrets...what could possibly go wrong?

In Joseph Haydn’s delightful opera buffa, a lovesick astrologer and his accomplices convince a pompous father he’s been transported to the moon, all in the name of true love. Featuring disguises, deception, and a strong dose of lunar lunacy, Il mondo della luna is a satirical gem brought to life by the talented students of Westminster University.

Please join us for a post show dessert and wine reception immediately following the reception.
