91Ѹ Drama Club to Perform Hartseer

The Drama Club at the 91Ѹ will be presenting an original, student-written, devised theatre performance in November.

“Hartseer” will be performed Nov. 17-19 at the Breedlove Auditorium on the 91Ѹ Campus, 5210 Grand Ave. Performances will be at 7 p.m. each evening with an additional matinee performance on Saturday, Nov. 19, at 3 p.m.

In devised theatre, a group working together creates the script and performs it, often with improvisation.

“Devised theatre is a vital and enriching step in any actor’s education,” said Cody Banning, adjunct theatre professor. “Shows like these teach the true value of ensemble and improv in a narrative setting. These shows also allow the cast and crew to truly be creative, collaborative, and let their talent soar above a common bound.”

“Hartseer” explores themes of grief and trauma and highlights the importance of support structures, coping, and coming out on the other side of the process.
