Two of this year’s theater majors have already completed their capstones. Ally Macey’s hilarious and provocative solo performance, I’m a Feminist… Now What?, debuted at the Hour Glass in downtown Hamilton in March. Ben Mandell’s superb performance as the Lawyer in the University Theater production of August Strindberg’s A Dreamplay drew audiences from across campus to Brehmer Theater in early April. Congratulations to them both!
