ALONE | TOGETHER
The world premiere of five short play commissions by Fabiola R. Decius, Molly Haas-Hooven, Nick Malakhow, Masha Obolensky and A. Rey Pamatmat. As we emerge from a year of social separation, hardship, and unrest ALONE | TOGETHER explores themes of how we find ways to come together again. Each piece will be staged in a unique space around Spingold. The audience will form an intimate group that will experience the theatrical journey together. Tickets are complimentary for all Brandeis Students, but still must be ordered.

REHEARSAL PROCESS
Rehearsals will be held for each play between October 4-November 8. You will NOT be requested to rehearse the entirety of the period between October 4-November 8, but rather ten to twelve days during that time frame. Schedules will be drafted based upon the availability of the stage manager, director and the actors. In addition, technical rehearsals/dress rehearsals will run from Wednesday, November 10 to Wednesday, November 17. The schedule will be determined by individual pieces, of which there are five total, and most actors will not be required to attend every technical rehearsal. All actors will be required to attend dress rehearsals. Performances are November 18-November 21.
