'Greek Tragedy' The early 2010s may not seem very long ago, but in our social media-dominated world, a play about the invention of the influencer is practically a period piece. The Middlebury College Department of Theatre’s production of Greek Tragedy, the newest dark comedy from fan-favorite playwright Lia Romeo, takes audiences back to the early days of Instagram, as seen through the eyes of a beloved social media star — and the mousy best friend who is actually writing all of her content. As the woman behind the camera struggles to tell her own story and the woman in front of it spirals out of control, they are forced to ask questions about where our online personas end and our true selves begin.
'The Moors' A governess arrives at her new post, but there is no child — or master of the house — in sight. There are only two sisters, dreaming impossible dreams as they live out their lives in the bleak English hills, and the governess’ arrival marks the start of a journey down a dangerous path for all three. This is playwright Jen Silverman’s The Moors, a gothic comedy inspired by the novels of the Brontë sisters, such as Wuthering Heights, Jane Eyre and Agnes Grey. The Middlebury College Department of Theatre presents three performances of this dark, women-centered story; a lively talkback follows the Friday show.
