Thurs., June 14: 7:30-9:30pm
Shoreline Community College Theater presents the world premiere of Off We Fly Now, which will be performed as a mixed media experience in collaboration with Shoreline’s Visual Communications Program to combine live action with animation.

Snow White, Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, and Sleeping Beauty, have found a way to escape from their centuries-old fairy tales. Arriving in the “real world,” they quickly attract the attention of the media and the public. As the four attempt to discover the meaning of life, they end up becoming reality show celebrities. Then they begin to realize that the real world, similar to the fairy tale world, is full of tricks and traps. Fame, love, youth, and marriage are each unsolved riddles.

Off We Fly Now challenges the boundaries between fairy tales and the truth. Perhaps, after all, the tales were written to prepare us for life in the real world.

From musical theatre’s most renowned composer and the winner of seven Tony Awards, including Best Musical, Best Score, Best Lyrics, and Best Book, Company is regarded as a trailblazer of the dark-comedy, modern-musical genre.

Set in New York, Company follows five married, once married, or soon to be married couples and their mutual friend, Robert, a 35-year-old bachelor who has been unable to establish a long-term relationship. The couples are presented in a series of vignettes, primarily through Bobby’s eyes, so that we see the less than ideal aspects of commitment. However, can it be that the committed are happy? Bobby learns that relationships aren’t perfect, but are they a necessary part of *Being Alive*?

Featuring a brilliant, brisk, and energetic score containing many of Sondheim’s best-known songs, Company will have audience members seeing reflections of themselves in the relationships on stage.

Tickets at Brown Paper Tickets or at the door.

The Laramie Project Performance: Campus Main Theater (1600 Bldg)
Thurs., March 15 – Sat., March 17: 7:30-10:30pm
Tickets at Brown Paper Tickets.

The tragic story of Matthew Shepard made national headlines in 1998. This 21-year-old gay college student was beaten, tied to a fence, and left to die in Laramie, Wyoming. Two men were arrested and charged with kidnapping, aggravated robbery, and attempted first-degree murder for the hate crime. One month later, emotions still raw, director Moisés Kaufman and his team began conducting hundreds of interviews with the people of Laramie. From those interviews came The Laramie Project, a brutally honest and thought-provoking “live documentary” about an outraged nation and a stunned Wyoming town.

One of the past decade’s most performed American plays, and also adapted into a 2002 HBO movie, The Laramie Project is a heart-rending theatrical collage that explores the depths to which humanity can sink as well as the heights of compassion of which we are capable. See the timeless piece at the Shoreline Community College Theater. Directed by Debra Pralle.

Content advisory: This production includes mild sexual themes and descriptions of graphic violence. Children under five will not be admitted.

Tickets at Brown Paper Tickets.

General Admission:  $16
Students (Non-SCC), Seniors, and Staff:  $12

The Laramie Project Performance: Campus Main Theater (1600 Bldg)
Thurs., March 8 – Sat., March 10: 7:30-10:30pm
Tickets at Brown Paper Tickets.

The tragic story of Matthew Shepard made national headlines in 1998. This 21-year-old gay college student was beaten, tied to a fence, and left to die in Laramie, Wyoming. Two men were arrested and charged with kidnapping, aggravated robbery, and attempted first-degree murder for the hate crime. One month later, emotions still raw, director Moisés Kaufman and his team began conducting hundreds of interviews with the people of Laramie. From those interviews came The Laramie Project, a brutally honest and thought-provoking “live documentary” about an outraged nation and a stunned Wyoming town.

One of the past decade’s most performed American plays, and also adapted into a 2002 HBO movie, The Laramie Project is a heart-rending theatrical collage that explores the depths to which humanity can sink as well as the heights of compassion of which we are capable. See the timeless piece at the Shoreline Community College Theater.

Directed by Debra Pralle.

Content advisory: This production includes mild sexual themes and descriptions of graphic violence. Children under five will not be admitted.

Tickets at Brown Paper Tickets.

General Admission:  $16
