In the Red and Brown Water

Oglethorpe Theatre Program presents In the Red and Brown Water by Tarell Alvin McCraney.

Inspired by Yoruba mythology from Africa and the Caribbean, and Spanish playwright Frederico Garcia Lorca's plays, In the Red and Brown Water tells the story of Oya, a young woman who sacrifices her dream of becoming a track star to take care of her ailing mother. A poetic and haunting story of love, longing, family and friendship told in McCraney’s singular theatrical style. McCraney's play Moonlight was the inspiration for the Oscar-winning film. 

Directed by January LaVoy.

Performances are on November 21 at 8pm, November 22 at 7pm (Boar's Head party to follow), November 23 at 8pm, November 24 at 2pm.

Tickets are free for Oglethorpe students, faculty and staff. No need to reserve in advance--just bring your OU ID to the Box Office on the day of the performance.
