Hinterland

LINCOLN ARTS & CULTURE FOUNDATION

The UC Davis Department of Theatre & Dance presents Hinterland by Granada Artist-in-Residence Lucy Gough. Hinterland is a journey to the wild edge, the place where things change. Two poetic radio dramas take the listener into a dark surreal landscape sculpted in sound and voice. The two new plays concern imagination and transformation and are a fusion of savage earthiness and magic realism. Both dramas explore the search for the soul. The titles are Hinterland, which is pure radio drama, and Mapping the Soul, a hybrid between radio and theatre. Director Lucy Gough is an acclaimed British playwright. Her works are frequently broadcast on BBC World Service and BBC Radio. Hinterland opens on Wednesday, December 1, and continues through Saturday, December 4, at Main Theatre, Wright Hall, UC Davis. There will be a talkback with the audience after each performance. Tickets and more information: http://theatredance.ucdavis.edu.
