Tarrant County College’s Northwest Campus announces (most of) their 2007-2008 theater season
The Tarrant County College Northwest Campus's theater department, titled Theatre Northwest, has just announced most of the shows for their 2007-2008 season. They have yet to reveal the last show of their season, but here is what they will be offering:
- To Kill a Mockingbird from October 10 - 14, 2007. Adapted by Christopher Sergel from the novel by Harper Lee. Coming of age story about a sister and a brother named Jean Louise "Scout" Finch and Jeremy Atticus "Jem" Finch respectively, who are growing up in the fictional small town of Maycomb, Alabama, in the Deep South of America in 1935. The story takes place over a period of three years and is told through the recollections of the younger sister, Jean Louise Finch or "Scout", as she is commonly referred to by friends. During the story the children's father, attorney Atticus Finch, is appointed to defend a black man who has been accused of raping a white girl.
- I Hate Hamlet from November 28 - December 2, 2007. Written by Paul Rudnick. The play centers around a young actor who has just earned fame and fortune on a television show about doctors and is apprehensive about returning to New York to play Hamlet in the prestigious Shakespeare in Central Park festival. To add to his insecurities, his realtor has rented him an apartment once inhabited by John Barrymore, who many consider to have given one of the greatest performances of Hamlet in the twentieth century. A séance brings the ghost of John Barrymore back to the apartment where he once lived. Barrymore offers guidance to the young actor, who has to decide between the easy money that he could make with a new television series and the confidence to be gained by facing the world’s most difficult acting challenge.
