The Empty Space Theatre Presents Melancholy Play A Play By Sarah Ruhl Directed by Beth Wynstra October 21, 22, 23 at 7:00pm October 23 and 24 at 2:00pm Sandra L. Sorenson Rehearsal Studio Tickets $5.00 Melancholy Play is Sarah Ruhl’s whimsical and inventive comedy about a woman whose melancholy makes her irresistibly captivating, until she suddenly becomes cheerful. Blending humor, romance, and magical transformation, the play explores the surprising power of sadness, the unpredictability of desire, and the ways we connect with one another. Equal parts funny and poignant, it is a theatrical meditation on love, longing, and what makes us truly fascinating to others.

Led by Artistic Director and Professor Beth Wynstra, TEST’s objective is to produce socially relevant, thought-provoking and compelling plays and musicals to strengthen and formalize curricular ties in ways rewarding to both participants and audiences. PLEASE NOTE: PLEASE ARRIVE ON TIME AS THERE WILL BE NO LATE SEATING FOR THIS PRODUCTION.
