The McKnight Center for the Performing Arts in Stillwater has announced some heavy-hitting acts for its 2021-2022 season lineup, including country music star Tim McGraw and Broadway icon Bernadette Peters.

She is also a line producer for plays and musicals in The Public’s five performance spaces and co-leads The Public’s Devised Theater Working Group.
On Jan. 22, 1973, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in Roe v. Wade that the Constitution grants people who are pregnant the right to terminate that pregnancy. Now, nearly 50 years later, the Helmerich School of Drama and University Theatre will recount and explore the experiences and activism of the women behind the historic decision with its upcoming performance of âRoe.âÂ
âRoeâ was published in 2019 and written by Lisa Loomer, co-screenwriter of the 1999 film Girl, Interrupted. The play follows the stories of lawyer Sarah Weddington and plaintiff Norma McCorvey, better known as âJane Roe,â according to a press release.Â
ââRoeâ explores the ways in which truth is refracted and renegotiated over time by diverse groups of people,â said director Nancy Bell in the release, âsomething we will all have to grapple with more and more in the coming years.âÂ
