Theatre & Dance 2021 Fall Events
Welcome to the Fall 2021 semester in the Department of Theatre and Dance. During the past year, the absence of in-person arts events has only served to deepen their significance in our daily lives. As we continue to move forward through these challenging times, we hope the experience of once again seeing our student performances, productions, and exhibitions will serve as a bit of welcome relief.

PROCEEDING SAFELY
The university has mandated that masks must be worn in all indoor spaces.
Please keep in mind these events are subject to change pending state, county, and university health and safety regulations regarding COVID-19. The College of the Arts will host events as permitted insofar as these regulations allow us to operate safely. All ticket holders will be notified promptly of any changes.
CSUF's Facilities Management division has and will continue to ensure proper ventilation in buildings. This includes adjusting incoming fresh air flow ranges and enhanced HVAC filters. All buildings in the College of the Arts have been upgraded from
Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value (MERV) 8 to either MERV 11 or MERV 13.
Thank you for your continued support. Now, on with the show!

How do we begin the process of moving toward one another after so much separation, isolation, and fear? Can the distance between us ever be bridged and if it can, how will we know who to trust? The devised work Within Reach poses these questions in a moving, visceral way designed to uncover the core of what makes us human.

The Wolves is a contemporary play by Sarah DeLappe focusing on a high school girls’ indoor soccer team as they warm up for a series of games. Amid the chaos of teenage self-discovery, the girls reflect on social pressure, loss, and the complexities of forging a personal identity. By play’s end, they are warriors tested and ready – they are The Wolves.
