The newest season of Linfield Theatre features four productions exploring what it means to thrive, heal and grow. The main stage season opens with “The Wolves,” a 2017 Pulitzer Prize finalist by Sarah DeLappe, running Oct. 26-28 and Nov. 2-5. Tickets go on sale Oct. 11 for this play that examines physical and mental health through the eyes of nine teenage girls on an indoor soccer team.
On Dec. 7 and 8, Linfield Theatre produces “Too Much Light Makes the Baby Go Blind (30 Plays in 60 Minutes)” by Greg Allen. Through different performance genres, this production investigates health from a range of angles. Each play will be curated, directed and designed by students.
Linfield returns in the spring with Moliere’s “The Imaginary Invalid” on April 18-20 and 25-26. In this comedic play, the hypochondriac Argan tries to marry his daughter off to the son of a doctor to reduce the cost of his care. Tickets go on sale April 3.
The season wraps with “Springfest: Student Creative Projects” on May 9 and 10. These student works will be curated, directed, performed and designed by students with health serving as a through-line for all the performances.
