Fine Arts: Theatre
The theatre department presents one production each semester. A variety of works, including dramas, comedies, farces, and musicals, have been produced. Students can audition for acting roles or volunteer for technical areas of production (costumes, set construction, sound, lighting, makeup, stage management, etc).

If you're interested in theatre as a major, as an extracurricular experience or just for the fun of it, you are invited to get involved!

SPRING 2007: Actors sought for ‘Proof’
Auditions for the University of Wisconsin-Baraboo/Sauk County's spring-semester theatre production of "Proof," will be held from 6 to 10 p.m., Feb. 1 and 2 in the R.G. Brown Theatre.

Both students and community members are encouraged to audition. Roles are needed for two men and two women. One male role calls for an actor who looks age 50. The other roles call for actors who look around age 20. UW-Baraboo/Sauk County’s Cat Gleason will direct the production.

David Auburn’s “Proof” is a compelling drama about trust and family set against the backdrop of the competitive and insular world of mathematics. Catherine, the daughter of a mathematical genius must face the possibility that she may have inherited her father’s insanity, and perhaps more frighteningly, his brilliance. This Pulitzer Prize winning play questions our understanding of truth and certainty by asking—How do you prove sanity? And moreover, how do you prove genius?

The campus is holding a copy of the play on reserve in the T.N. Savides Library for viewing. Performances will be held April 12 to 15. For more information, contact Gleason at cat.gleason@uwc.edu or 608-355-5238.

"Lady Luxury"
