Troy University’s Sounds of the Stage

Shakespeare's Twelfth Night - Mistaken Identity and Love

This time, we hear two scenes. One is a confession of love, and the other is a reaction to that very same confession. Then, Troy University lecturer Alex Piper, who has directed a production of Twelfth Night for TROY, joins us to discuss the play.

"Oedipus Complexities" - A Performance and Conversation Surrounding "Oedipus Rex"

Today’s performance features a rapid-fire exchange between the blind prophet Tiresius and King Oedipus himself.

Love, Betrayal, and Revenge - Medea

Last episode, we heard a dramatic exit. This time, an aggressive entrance sets the stage for our performance of Medea, written by ancient Greek playwright Euripides.

The Door Slam Heard 'Round the World - Henrik Ibsen's "A Doll's House"

On this show, we listen to some of our favorite scenes from the theatre and celebrate the sounds that resonate with us long after we’ve left our seats. In 1879, audiences found themselves utterly shocked at the premiere of Henrik Ibsen's "A Doll's House."  In today's scene, Troy University students Ellen Fox and Colton Suttles play Nora and Torvald Helmer.
