Missing our missing movie theaters

Aidan O'Malley | Monday, August 17, 2020

I was in a movie theater when Notre Dame first went online. It was the Wednesday of spring break. I was back home with no plans and no friends. Painfully aware of the homework I would return to, I dedicated my week to something I struggled to find time for on campus, going to the

Caroline Lezny | Tuesday, January 28, 2020

Jazz and nightclubs, swing dancing and radio contests: these are probably not the hallmarks of World War II narratives — and with good reason.

This past weekend, South Bend’s Morris Performing Arts Center presented the Broadway

Hope springs in FTT’s provocative production of ‘Spring Awakening’

Catherine Barra | Tuesday, April 24, 2018

The Patricia George Decio Theatre is dark. The stage is set with a step-down extension. There are books, lamps, chairs and tables haphazardly yet carefully placed around the perimeter of the stage forming a carefully-created mess of school and household items. A looming scaffold adorns the back of the stage, under which the band plays.

‘The Importance of Being Earnest’ Review

Alexander Daugherty | Monday, November 13, 2017

“The Importance of Being Earnest,” performed first in 1895 in London, is perhaps Oscar Wilde’s most widely recognizable play. With turns of remarkable wit and a text that allows for significant physical comedy, Wilde’s play is no easy feat to stage, let alone stage well. The Notre Dame Film, Television and Theater Department’s (FTT) production,
