THEATRE: The Torch Bearers
Waterman Theatre, Tyler Hall
Written by George Kelly
Directed by Mark Cole
 The eccentric and pompous Mrs. Pampinelli gathers her amateur actors to rehearse for their small-town production. Despite her  best directorial efforts, sets collapse, props disappear and lines are forgotten. Through the follies, tears and comedic mishap, Mrs. Pampinelli champions the noble art of theatre and carries the torch of culture onward. Labeled a comic gem of the American theatre, The Torch Bearers is a rollicking evening of entertainment. “Only remember this, Paula – there will be actresses when husbands are a thing of the past”
TICKETS: Adults $12; students & seniors $10; SUNY Oswego students $5; preview $5

OPERA THEATRE: Carmen
Waterman Theatre, Tyler Hall
Presented by the Oswego Opera Theatre
Opera’s ultimate story of fatal attraction. The smoldering gypsy, Carmen, is foresworn to freedom: she can be embraced, but never possessed. The earnest soldier, Don Jose, mistakes a casual dalliance for true love, finds himself forced to abandon all he holds dear, and self-destructs in torrents of jealousy and obsession. Carmen is an unforgettable drama, set to Bizet’s thrillingly colorful score, infused with fiery Spanish-influenced melodies, pulsating rhythms and a powerhouse lineup of hit tunes.
TICKETS: Adults $25, seniors & students $20, SUNY Oswego students $15
