Showtime!

We’ve had a luxurious four weeks of rehearsal to prepare for the world premiere of Big Shoes! The cast has done an admirable job of getting this work ready and polished, the set and costumes are fabulous, the music sounds terrific, the choreography is fun and effective, AND we are all set up in the wonderful UNCSA Performance Place Thrust Theater.

So what do we need now? An audience.

Open Dream Ensemble is a professional outreach program of the University of North Carolina School of the Arts and is comprised of professional artists who trained in dance, drama, and music at UNCSA. Peril on the Red Planet, an original play written by UNCSA Alumna Mollye Maxner with Shona Simpson, is set in the future and tells the story of 13-year-old Diana as she works to end famine on Mars. For more information about the production and to read about the 2010 cast members, visit www.opendreamensemble.com.

The Imagine Mars Project, which is sponsored by NASA's Jet Propulsion Lab, named Open Dream Ensemble as one of its four principal partners in 2009. Their support and collaboration helped make it possible to present Peril on the Red Planet. We hope you can join us!
