Oleanna
May 17 - June 16
Written by: David Mamet
Directed by: April Miller
Oleanna highlights the conflict between a university professor and one of his female students, who accuses him of sexual harassment. By depicting a power struggle between two self-absorbed individuals with differing viewpoints, the play makes a statement about the ambiguity surrounding sexual harassment and how one’s perception of reality is often filtered through one’s experiences.

Audience Reviews
What People Are Saying
The greatest compliment that I can pay to this tremendously powerful production [...] is that for almost two and a half hours I did not once squirm in my seat, check the time, or maybe even take a breath. This Cat on a Hot Tin Roof redefines riveting theater.
Doug Sturdivant

True art is to address challenging topics and weave in a thick thread of humor; Folsom's vision made this art possible. Don't miss out on the realization of this vision of a Checkhov classic.

In the relatively recent history of The Classics Theatre Project, I have stood in awe of their brilliance for staging from the theatre canon, and making them vibrant, accessible and relevant. Their treatments are intelligent and entertaining, with a keen and kinetic spin.
