Dramatics Magazine \n\n\n\nAfter its evocative production of Macbeth last spring\, New York’s Aquila Theatre returns to Purdue to breathe new life into The Bard once again with its take on Julius Caesar. A classic tale of the machinations of power in political institutions\, William Shakespeare’s beautiful language combined with Aquila artistic director Desiree Sanchez’s striking imagery is a must-see for classical theatre fans. The story picks up with a victorious Caesar returning from battle\, but senators Cassius\, Brutus\, and dozens of others are conflicted about how much authority one man should hold. See the drama and turmoil that led to the most famous backstabbing in ancient history. \n\n\n\nPre-Show Discussion\n\n\n\n\n\n4-part pre-show discussion of Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar with Professor Tulin Tosun\, Purdue University’s Cornerstone Integrated Liberal Arts. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nABOUT THE STORY \nIn Aquila Theatre’s striking new production\, we are taken on a journey into a world of conspiracy and betrayal. Fresh from success on the battlefield\, a triumphant Caesar returns to Rome a virtual dictator. Brutus\, Cassius and a group of like-minded senators decide that his undemocratic power grab must be stopped and Caesar assassinated. After the act has been carried out\, violence erupts on the streets of the capital and the country is plunged into civil war. The conspirators find they must contend with forces still loyal to the murdered leader\, led by Mark Antony and Caesar’s nephew\, Octavius. The play reaches its climax when the two opposing sides meet in battle at Philippi\, and the fate of a nation hangs in the balance. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPROGRAM\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSHOW SPONSORS

SUMMARY:Pride and Prejudice
DESCRIPTION:Aquila Theatre\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTICKETS ON SALE NOW!\n\n\n\n\n\nBUY TICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\nPICK5 + SAVE\n\n\n\n\n\nGROUP ORDER FORM\n\n\n\n\n\n…a classically trained\, modernly hip troupe… The New York Times \n\n\n\nThe supply chain of English classical theatre to Purdue remains strong thanks to New York City’s Aquila Theatre. Following its take on Macbeth and The Great Gatsby last spring\, Aquila will present Jane Austen’s fan-favorite Pride and Prejudice. For more than 200 years\, the romance between Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy has captivated audiences in novel form and the 2005 film version starring Keira Knightley and Matthew Macfadyen. This performance gives Austen fans a chance to see the love affair full of delightful and romantic misunderstandings\, class satire\, and English country dances come to life thanks to her beloved rom com. \n\n\n\nPre-Show Discussion\n\n\n\n\n\n2-part pre-show discussion of the play adaptation of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice with Professor Tara Cuthbertson\, Purdue University’s Cornerstone Integrated Liberal Arts. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nABOUT THE STORY \nPublished in 1813\, Jane Austen’s ultimate romantic comedy\, Pride and Prejudice\, has stood the test of time. As the Bennet sisters try to navigate their way toward love and marriage\, Austen humorously skewers the hypocrisies and absurdities of the English class system\, and puts the thoughts and feelings of her women characters front and center. Filled with unforgettable characters\, this sharp social satire has it all: wit\, romance and lots of dancing! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPROGRAM\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSHOW SPONSORS

SUMMARY:1984
DESCRIPTION:For 70 years\, George Orwell’s uneasily prescient novel 1984 has both unmoored readers from recognizable reality and helped them ruminate on the society they see. An influential\, evocative work of fiction that’s timeless and timely\, 1984 finds everyman Winston Smith unexpectedly challenging a world in which totalitarian government reigns supreme\, technology is a weapon of propaganda and control\, and Big Brother is always watching. It’s a story suited to the bold\, ensemble-driven physicality of Aquila Theatre\, which will stage a ferocious\, provocative and critically praised adaptation of Orwell’s work from award-winning playwright Michael Gene Sullivan. As does the novel\, the Aquila Theatre’s production forces its audience to consider: How far are we from Orwell’s dystopian nightmare…or in what ways are we already there? \nPERFORMANCES \nOct. 16 at 7:30PM\nOct. 17 at 7:30PM \nPurdue Convocations is pleased to welcome back Aquila Theatre Company after its successful run of Frankenstein at Purdue University in October 2018.  \nPRE-SHOW DISCUSSION | 6:30PM | BOTH NIGHTS | STEWART CENTER 310\nJoin Dr. Swati Srivastava\, an Assistant Professor in the Department of Political Science\, for a discussion about the evening’s performance.
