Lady Windermeres Fan Play by GUTS
Dear Members, The Groningen University Theatre Society (GUTS) are setting up Lady Windermeres Fan by Oscar Wilde this June, and are looking for both cast and crew. do you have a tiny inkling for theatre, acting or stage production? Then you are more than welcome to take part!!
Lady Windermere's Fan, our June production, will be performing on the 16th, 17th and 18th of June. Auditions for this play will be held on the 16th, 17th and 19th of November, with callbacks being on the 30th! Crew talks will be held on the 24th and 26th of November.
Lady Windermere's Fan is a hectic upper-class comedy. An enjoyably unlikely story of a wife who suspects her husband of having an affair, only for the 'other woman' to be unmasked as her own mother, who then sacrifices her reputation to save her daughter's marriage. But there is more to Lady Windermere's Fan than mere entertainment: it is above all a subtle social satire, particularly pointed about the hypocrisy of Victorian attitudes to women and sex.
Meet the NTvN writing competition, in which we challenge physicists (as well as astronomers and those in related fields) to write about their own research creatively—be it through a poem, a dialogue, an engaging story, or any other format. The only requirements are that the submission must be no longer than 1,500 words and must be received by December 1st. The winner will receive 500 euros, and the runner-up will receive 250 euros.
