Modern meets medieval in Villanova Theatre's production of Everyman, directed by Rev. David Cregan, OSA and on stage November 12 - 24, 2013. Cregan has chosen to emphasize the universality of the tale, bringing the production solidly into the here and now with contemporary language and modern design. BroadwayWorld has a first look below!
Villanova brings this new translation to life with the help of a talented team of designers, including two outstanding graduate students: Courtney Boches (Costume Design) and Seth Thomas Schmitt-Hall (Scenic Design). These student designs are supported by the work of Jerold Forsyth (Lighting Design), John Stovicek (Sound Design), and Brie Knight (Dramaturg).
