Idawalley, directed by Grace Cutler 鈥�24, is inspired by the life of female lighthouse keeper Idawalley Lewis of Newport, Rhode Island.

The play will run through January 29 in Robsham's Bonn Studio Theater.

Blue Stockings by Jessica Swale will follow in Bonn Studio February 23-26,听directed by Theatre Department Associate Professor of the Practice Patricia Riggin.

A moving, comical, and eye-opening story of four young women fighting for education against the larger backdrop of women's suffrage, the play follows Tess Moffat and her fellow 鈥渇irst years鈥� who are determined to graduate, but don鈥檛 anticipate the hurdles in their way: the distractions of love, the cruelty of the class divide, and the strength of the opposition.

Theatre Department Chair and Associate Professor of the Practice Luke Jorgensen calls it 鈥渂oth historical and hysterical." The action, he said, centers on the first group of women allowed entry to Girton College in England in 1896. "The college is allowing them to study but not graduate; the women band together to face entrenched chauvinism, violent misogyny, and the academy, demanding to be treated as equals.鈥�

Bonn Studio will also be the venue, March 23-26, for Dead Man鈥檚 Cell Phone, a play by Sarah Ruhl and directed by Lily Telegdy 鈥�23: 鈥渁 quirky dark comedy which explores technology鈥檚 ability to both isolate and unite us,鈥� said Jorgensen, who noted that the two student-directed plays are workshop productions: the director and designers are students mentored by department faculty.

Dead Man鈥檚 Cell Phone centers on the odyssey of a woman forced to confront her assumptions about mortality, redemption, and the need to connect in a technologically obsessed world. It is a play鈥攑resented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of Samuel French, Inc.鈥攁bout "how we memorialize the dead, and how that remembering changes us."
