“Just Breathe” Calmness coming to you Friday!

Second year MFA playwright, Philana Omorotionmwan, shall be producing “Just Breathe” Calmness(not madness) this week!!!!  Philana writes in her prompt, “This week, I am asking you write a 3-5 minute play in which you don’t take the breath for granted. Instead, I want you to pay very close attention to the breath.”

The Madness show is March 17th,  11pm, in the Hahne Black Box theater. Admission is free. We recommend you get there 45 to 60 minutes ahead of time to assure yourself a seat.

For more information about Madness this spring semester, check out our Madness page.
