LEXINGTON, Ky.\u2013 Transylvania University\u2019s 2018-19 theater season<\/span><\/a> will feature four productions\u2014from the contemporary to Shakespeare\u2014under the leadership of Tosha Fowler<\/span><\/a>, the new Lucille C. Little Chair of Theater and program director.<\/p>\n

All productions will be in Little Theater and are free to the public thanks to the generous support of the Dixon-White Fund.<\/p>\n

Transylvania Theater will benefit from Fowler\u2019s extensive professional career in theater as an actor, director, producer, teacher and playwright in both Chicago and Atlanta. Hailed as the \u201cfearless leader\u201d of her founding company, Cor Theatre, she was named \u201cOne of the Top People Who Really Perform\u201d by Newcity Chicago. Additionally, Fowler has taught at The Theatre School at DePaul University, Kent State University, Green Shirt Studios and Georgia Southern University.<\/p>\n

\u201cI could not be more excited to join the Transy faculty and to work with the Lexington theater community,\u201d Fowler said. \u201cIt is an exciting time to create theater in this thriving city, and I am ready to get to work. I plan on collaborating with local talent and bring in colleagues from across the country to enrich the Transylvania Theater experience.\u201d<\/p>\n

From Nov. 1-10, Fowler will direct a production of \u201cStupid F—ing Bird,\u201d a heartfelt, irreverent remix of Chekhov’s \u201cThe Seagull\u201d by Aaron Posner. Featuring an ensemble of writers, actors and those\u00a0<\/span>who choose to watch, it will tickle, tantalize and incite the audience to consider how art, love and revolution fuel the pursuit of happiness.<\/p>\n

On Nov. 29, Transylvania Theater will introduce Lexington to Carlos Murillo, an award-winning playwright and Mellon Foundation recipient. Working with the university and the surrounding theater community, Murillo\u2019s visit will culminate in a public staged reading of his new dark comedy, \u201cKilling of a Gentleman Defender,\u201d directed by Bo List, the producing artistic director of Lexington\u2019s AthensWest Theatre Company. First commissioned by Chicago\u2019s Goodman Theatre, this diverse production explores youth violence and the 1994 murder of Colombian soccer star Andres Escobar. Murillo will host a talk-back with the audience after the reading.<\/p>\n

From Feb. 21 to March 3, \u201cSilent Sky\u201d will conclude the Transy mainstage season. Written by award winning playwright Lauren Gunderson, \u201cSilent Sky\u201d tells the true story of Henrietta Leavitt\u2019s groundbreaking contribution to astronomy at the Harvard Observatory in the early 1900s. Fowler and Gunderson, who have been long-time colleagues, view this as a first step to many collaborations in Lexington for the future. According to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, the play is \u201can intellectual epic told on an intimate scale. Bottom line: Heavenly.\u201d<\/p>\n

Finally, from May 2-5, the Student Theater Guild will present William Shakespeare\u2019s \u201cA Midsummer Night\u2019s Dream\u201d as part of the Transy Student Series. The guild will bring an electric theatrical vision to the classic romance about the supernatural nature of love.<\/p>\n
