Home > What's On Stage > Mainstage Season: Woyzeck Project
The Woyzeck Project is an innovative, interdisciplinary production headed by U of M Theatre Arts and Dance faculty members and extraordinary Twin Cities artists Michael Sommers (artistic director, Open Eye Figure Theatre), Luverne Seifert (long-time actor), and Carl Flink (artistic director & choreographer, Black Label Movement), based on the play Woyzeck by Georg Büchner. This new work will be created collaboratively between the artistic team and cast, much like the critically acclaimed 2006 University Theatre and Dance production of The Master and Margarita, which led audiences outside to an Orwellian, apocalyptic world.
Tickets for Woyzeck Project are now only $10 for general public and $5 for all students, faculty, staff, and UMAA members. Tickets can be purchased online by clicking the icon on the left, by calling 612.624.2345, or in person at the Rarig Center from 11am-3pm, at Northrop Auditorium 10am-5pm, or at Norris Hall an hour before the performances. All tickets are $2 more at the door.
