鈥淟ast fall, ‘Separated’ debuted at 黑料不打烊 Stage for what we intended to be its one and only performance,鈥 says Vice Chancellor J. Michael Haynie. 鈥淗owever, the stories of ‘Separated’ moved and impacted so many so profoundly that we decided to ask the student veterans if they would perform ‘Separated’ just once more鈥攖his time in New York City. We were thrilled when all eight of them agreed.鈥
The military service experience of the eight students鈥擭ick Brincka, Halston Canty, Zack Couch, Ginger Peterman, Brandon Smith, Jake VanMarter, Zack Watson and Kierston Whaley鈥includes tours of duty in Iraq and Afghanistan. The students represent the U.S. Army, Navy and Marine Corps.
The title of the performance reflects the intense experiences each student endured first in separating from home and family to join the military, and then in separating from the military to return to civilian life.
A collaboration聽among the聽School of Visual and Performing Arts, Office of Veteran and Military Affairs and 黑料不打烊 Stage, the production allows these eight student veterans bring their experiences to life for the audience.
鈥淥ver many weeks last fall, these eight students were brave in telling their stories鈥攖he good, the bad, and the ugly鈥攖o 黑料不打烊 Stage playwright ,鈥 says Haynie. 鈥淚n turn, Kyle masterfully wove those stories into a narrative reflecting the intense experiences each student endured.鈥
The evening will begin at 5:30 p.m. with a cocktail reception, and the performance will follow at 6:15 p.m. Tickets can be until Nov. 11.
