Hillsborough College

Hillsborough College fosters artistic expression through theatre, enriching community engagement and cultural appreciation. Their performances, like 'Our Town', explore human experiences, connecting audiences to the beauty of everyday life.

48hr Play Festival&mdash;It all starts with a word. A spark of an idea. A challenge.&nbsp;Everyone is given one word. The group then divides into small teams (5 or less) of your own choosing. Teams take that word and turn it into an entire 10-15 minute play. In the following 48 hours, write, memorize, and stage the piece. It ends with a performance in front of an audience. 48 hours from start to finish. By attending this event, you support Hillsborough College Theatre Arts Program in giving students a real-world laboratory for storytelling and stagecraft. &nbsp;

Visiting artist lecture and performance, featuring excerpts of SCHOOL PICTURES, Obie Award-winning solo musical written and performed by Milo Cramer. Solo musical performance to be followed by a workshop about the performance and process. Faith hates reading, Jane lost her flashcards, and Javier sees no point in studying because of climate change. This playful collection of poem-songs, written and performed by Milo Cramer &ndash; a former tutor &ndash; paints intimate portraits of ten NYC students fighting to get into competitive schools. School Pictures is a charming musical journal of keen observations which builds to a sweeping meditation on inequality, learning, parenting, and the cruelty of puberty.

The Trial Machine | Nov 4-7A Devised Theatrical Work based on the novel &quot;The Trial Machine&quot; by Franz Kafka Directed by Professor Ami Sallee&nbsp;K has been arrested. The crime: Unknown. This is where our story begins. The Trial Machine is a dark comedy based on Franz Kafka&rsquo;s novel, The Trial, originally published a century ago. The heart of this story could have been written today and highlights just how easily one can get stuck in the legal system with no recourse or clear way out. K&rsquo;s frustration with bureaucracy and the absolute ridiculousness involved in navigating government processes are heightened to the degree of absurdity in this devised homage to German Expressionism.&nbsp;
