Wendell Fires Up Theater

Seven plays inspired by seven Shakespearean sonnets, written by seven eminent playwrights, directed by seven student directors, and performed by seven-times-two (that's 14) students actors.

The entirely student-run Wendell Theatre Group continues to experiment with creative approaches to performance with its production of Love's Fire, which opened Wednesday night in 209 East Duke.

"We decided to do the show with seven student directors instead of just one," said Sarah Bagley, Wendell's artistic director. "The great thing about Wendell is the student collaboration that comes with putting up a show, and with Love's Fire we wanted to experience the ultimate collaboration."

Love's Fire will continue to run tonight and Friday evening at 8pm, and again Saturday at 2pm. Tickets are $7 for students, $8 for general admission and can be purchased on the Bryan Center walkway or at the door.
