OU Theater Department: A Musical? Maybe so.

The Ohio University School of Theater is located in Kantner Hall on North Green. For many years the theater department has continuously impressed audiences with the productions they put on each quarter. Students and staff endure extensive preparatory endeavors to ensure the final product is a success. Some of these actions include designing the set, fittings for costumes, and long rehearsals. However, many wonder about the nonexistence of musicals in the theater department. After meeting with students and faculty in the School of Theater and the School of Music, it has been revealed that a perceived perception created by each individual department is responsible for play-production only. It has also been recently revealed that after years of wanting to see a musical, the Athens community's wish has been granted. Next school year, the musical Assassins will be produced by the Theater Department. (Kedrin Herron)
