“Everybody” takes the stage

By Anna Jones

The local theater scene buzzed with excitement as “Everybody,” the thought-provoking and innovative play by Braden Jacobs-Jenkins, took the spotlight. This modern rendition of the contemporary theatrical masterpiece has historically captivated audiences with its unique perspective on life, death and the human experience. “Everybody” is a modern adaptation of the 15th-century morality play, “Everyman.” It invited theatergoers on an introspective journey that explores the fundamental questions of existence. Directed by Tracy Manning, artistic director of theatre arts, audiences could expect three evenings full of unique storytelling and powerful performances.

The sounds that fly across the audience to give you a taste of life’s nightly flavors, and our expression of the passion for life is the dance of the moment.  Fortunately, our university has the opportunity to relish these special events, and who does it have to thank? Taylor’s Mainstage!
