Coming out of great unknown this time last year, when COVID-19 held a deadly grip on the nation, McMurry University found a way to bring back live theater.
Kerry Goff, the theater department head, had to revise his three-show summer schedule due largely to getting the rights to shows, but he came up with a Plan B. He would take two shows, Steel Magnolias and The Fantasticks, outdoors.

The shows were performed on an elevated stage at the university s Quad. Actors were spread across the stage and did not physically interact.
Audiences were limited in number and seated apart, usually under the nearest tree. That alone encouraged social distancing.
