The Covey Center for the Arts is pleased to announce the 2010-11 Black Box Theater Season:

WAR OF THE WORLDS
Taken from Orson Welles’ actual broadcast by the Mercury Theatre on the Air as heard over the Columbia Broadcasting System, October 30, 1938. The most thrilling drama ever broadcast! From the famous H.G. Wells novel.
October 15-16, 18, 21-23, 25, 28-30

JOYFUL NOISE
Back by popular demand: the remarkable story of how Handel wrote the Messiah.  Watch as love, passion, scandal, and struggle mix together when George Frideric Handel writes his most famous oratorio. This was last season’s greatest success, playing to sold-out audiences. Written by Tim Slover.
December 3-4, 6, 9-11, 13, 16-18

Over a span of 50 years, Melissa and Andy write letters to each other. They write in times of joy, sorrow, just to catch up, to invite, share their dreams and simply stay connected to one another, even though distance and different lifestyles keep them apart. Hilarious and poignant, this is the perfect play for Valentine’s!
January 28-29, 31, February 3-5, 7, 10-12, 14

 THE PLAN
Explore the LDS plan of salvation through the stories of Old Testament women and men, examining agency and adversity, choices and the consequences of choices, pain and difficulty and joy.  Join Ruth and Boaz, Jacob and Leah, Adam and Eve, and let’s have a conversation together.  A new play by Eric Samuelsen.
March 18-19, 21, 24-26, 38, 31, April 1-2

SOUVENIR
Enjoy Stephen Temperly’s play about Florence Foster Jenkins, the society woman who enjoyed an amazingly successful concert career despite the fact that her singing was awful enough for critics to dub her the “dire diva of din.” A portrait of a lady who became a legend for singing . . . badly!
MAY 6-7, 9, 12-14, 16, 19-21
