PANTHEON by Happenstance Theater, featuring Craig Jaster '83 and Sarah Olmsted Thomas '08, will be at Joe's Movement Emporium (3309 Bunker Hill Rd, Mt Rainier, MD 20712) June 18-July 1. "The Happenstance quintet delves into Ancient Greek Mythology with guest artist Craig Jaster generating a live musical score. In a pared-down 1940’s aesthetic, a chorus of workers assembles lightning bolts and mines the Underworld. Like Sisyphus they must endlessly repeat their tasks. With an ample smattering of amusement, the performers invoke the Muses, offer Sacrifice, suffer Hubris, consult Oracles, and meet Fate as they portray an array of mortals and Gods whose flaws reflect their own." Tickets available online.
