“Sincerely,” written and directed by Mack Moseley ’24, is an experimental play exploring what it means to live in the world (as we perceive it to be) with sincerity. This collage-style theater piece lives on a continuum from the sincere and real to the superficial and performed. These stories are told in short scenes by characters isolated in their relationships, desperately trying to discern what is real.
“The Egg” is based on an original short story written by Andy Weir and is adapted and directed by Alex McFadden. The play follows an individual’s experience with the afterlife upon their death, their meeting with an individual known as God and learning about the nature of their existence.
For UNC Asheville’s Drama Department, the stage is a lab. Through the production of theatrical presentations for the public like these, drama students test the theories and practices they study in the classroom. They invite everyone to embrace experimentation and collaboration in the form of theatre art.
Tickets are $2 and available for purchase here: our.show/sincerelytheegg.
