Friday, April 24, 2026 8:00pm
Theatre Building
Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Annie Baker brings her observational prowess and razor-sharp wit to an intimate adaptation of Chekhov's beloved dark comedy. Written with the “goal of creating a version that sounds to our contemporary American ears the way it sounded to Russian ears during the play’s first productions in the provinces in 1898,” Annie Baker’s Uncle Vanya captures the timeless longing, absurdity, and beauty of human relationships.

Beetlejuice. The Musical. The Musical. The Musical. promotional image

Beetlejuice. The Musical. The Musical. The Musical.

Friday, May 1, 2026 7:30pm
Hancher Auditorium
It’s showtime! Based on Tim Burton’s dearly beloved film, this hilarious musical tells the story of Lydia Deetz, a strange and unusual teenager whose whole life changes when she meets a recently deceased couple and a demon with a thing for stripes. With an irreverent book, an astonishing set, and a score that’s out of this Netherworld, Beetlejuice is “SCREAMINGLY GOOD FUN!” (Variety). And under its uproarious surface (six feet under, to be exact), it’s a remarkably touching show about family, love, and making the most of every Day-O!
