Boom Roasted Productions
Boom Roasted Productions presents Rent in Woods Theater at 8 pm on May 2, and 3 pm on May 3. Visit facebook.com/BoomRoastedMU. The club is currently in rehearsals for this production, which will be the first fully student-produced musical. Rent’s composer, Jonathan Larson, died the night before it opened off-Broadway, and his papers were gifted to the Library of Congress. The club also sponsored a trip to the Library of Congress last week so students could see his lyrics, rehearsal notes, etc. Sheri Anderson, the club’s faculty advisor, said the trip was incredibly inspiring. She said the students were most interested in the Larson materials. “They asked questions about everything from Larson’s creative process to the specifics of archiving. Several of them were crying by the time they left,” Anderson said. Four students were offered internships on the spot by Senior Music Specialist Mark Horowitz, who had watched the students organize materials into show order.
Sociology Club
