INTERVIEW: Llewie Nuñez ‘13 Talks to the Oberlin Reivew

oberlintheater:

Llewie Nuñez

Nuñez returns to Hall Auditorium as the title character in Associate Professor of Theater Paul Moser’s production of Lucia Mad, by Don Nigro, which follows the batty daughter of James Joyce as she falls for his protégé Samuel Beckett. She spoke about the dubious distinction between student and professional theater, working with Oberlin’s faculty and her approach to character development for a historical play.”

Synchronous Objects: What else might physical thinking look like?

danceoberlin:

Have you ever seen this? One of the coolest ways we’ve seen dance and technology interact.

Lily Skove, a research associate on the project came to Oberlin a few years back and spoke about it.

“From dance to data to object, Synchronous Objects investigates the interlocking systems of organization in the choreography of William Forsythe’s One Flat Thing, reproduced (2000).”

Anonymous asked: Is there anywhere we can see what (famous) bands are scheduled to play at Oberlin and who the convocation speakers are?

(Apologies for how long it took me to get to this question, but I wanted to make sure all the things were online and linkable before I answered.)

The Oberlin Arts Guide went up a few days ago, which lists convocation speakers, artist recital series, plus mainstage theater, dance, and opera productions for the 2012-13 school year. If you’re wondering what’s happening at the ‘Sco, they only recently became active on Facebook again (i.e. they are gradually starting to post events that are happening this fall) but checking their group would be a good start.

July 13th (this Friday) marks the opening “Bus Stop”, the second production of The Oberlin Summer Theater Festival’s 2012 season.

“‘Bus Stop’ is William Inge’s touching and hilarious story of a footloose torch singer who knew too much about men, and a cowboy who didn’t know enough about women.
