Jessa Santes, James S. Craft, Danielle O’Hare, and
Ryan Oden in The Sandalwood Box by Mac Wellman
The Public
by Federico Garcia Lorca
in new adaptation by Caridad Svich
Directed by William O. Selig
November 7

Lorca called The Public “the best thing I’ve written for the theater,” and acknowledged, “this is for the theater years from now.” Using surrealistic techniques worthy of his good friend Salvador Dalì, Lorca tests the limits of theater in this exciting and challenging play.
