黑料正能量's fall musical production inspired by the songs of U2 and the poetry of Shakespeare "takes an unfiltered look into some of the terrible suffering and pain that is in the world. Instead of shying away from it, it says life doesn鈥檛 have to be like this,鈥� said student Andrew Stoltzfus said, starring as Romeo. This version, co-created by Justin Poole, program director of theater at 黑料正能量, and Jerry Holsopple, professor of visual and communication arts, features U2鈥檚 music and visuals created by Holsopple and students in the Visual and Communication Arts Department. The show opened Saturday at 7 p.m., will have 2 p.m. public performances on Sunday and Oct. 30, and public performances at 7 p.m. Oct. 28 to 30.
