“Edgar & Annabel” by Sam Holcroft  
Directed by Emily Gregory ’10

In a country closely resembling our own, in a time not too distant in the future, the freedoms of a once democratic state are now an illusion. the election is a sham. Free press is a memory. The new status quo is a totalitarian world older ruling with the iron fist of security surveillance. Everywhere privacy has been replaced with the computerized ears of Big Brother.

“Life Under Water” by Richard Greenberg

Directed by Francesca Sparaco ’16

Life Under Water tells the story of the bourgeoisie life of three college age kids, and their older counterparts on summer vacation. These five people vacation in the Hamptons and reside in their lavish oceanfront villas before returning to the city for the fall. The play brings to life the ideas of upper middle sophistication, decadence, and a high level of self-indulgence in all things material and interpersonal.
