COMPANY Interpreting: |
Don't miss this theatre classic - shadowed!
Company is a classic musical by Stephen Sondhiem. Sondheim is the brilliant mind behind Gypsy, A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum, West Side Story, Sweeny Todd, and countess other 'must-see' shows. Company is also a 'must-see.' Sondheim is known for weaving a good story - and weaving language. His lyrics are complex and filled with detail. He uses them to help the listerners draw more detailed pictures in their minds. This challenges many actors - and is a wonderful challenge for interpreters. In Company, Sondheim does not tell Bobby's story from start to finish, like in a book. Instead, Bobby see bits and pieces of the lives of his friends, who are either married or engaged - and, this helps him understand the importance of 'having company' in life. [ MORE SHOW INFO ] Oakland University’s students are very talented. They are also 100% committed to shadow interpreted theatre. The seating is great for ASL - no heads blocking your way. Tickets are just $17 / $9 for students. Seats are NOT assigned, so arrive early. Sit anywhere, but the best views are closer to the center of the audience (avoid the front few rows for watching interpreters). Click "Location and Tickets" above. Many performances sell out - especially the interprted shows - so, buy tickets early. |
