Allison Moore Lise Rouillier
Instrument Theatre as a transformational power.
This is more than a belief --belief being subjective, a result of our needs.
Set Designer This is knowledge --knowledge being the result of life experience.
Francesca Callow
General Rule All knowledge should be shared.

(Remember how and when we couldn't imagine the lazer beam, couldn't

Theory "The mind is its own place and in itself can make a heaven of hell, a hell of heaven."
John Milton
Assistant Stage Manager
Now, imagine the possibilities, should we decide to open up.
Dave Hamilton Then imagine free access to higher levels of awareness.
Imagine open channels to other planes of existence.
Imagine communication through time and space.
Assistant Technical Director Sound Board Operator
Imagine healing and peace and love as choices, deliberate choices.
Krikor Ajemian Martin Kenny
Just suppose all this was possible and we were just too scared to try .•.
Wouldn't that be the epitome of absurdity?
Faculty Design Advisors
Susan Hall In this frame of mind, the reality reflected in the Killing Game might bother you. It bothers me to see
Eric Mongerson how we're constantly letting ourselves get crushed instead of finding new paths that might lead to our
being uplifted.
Hopefully, this moment we share will enforce our desire for a better life to the point of acting upon this
l desire. That is my intention. Therefore, I've imagined a vision of Ionesco's play that is definitely not a
study of his work as a playwright, but rather a hommage to the man, the philosopher whose main goal
Seamstress Milliner was never to find a solution, but only to bring us closer to higher expect tions through constant
Deborah Marsh Catherine LaU<Ja questioning.
