The University Theatre season continues with the Oscar Wilde comedy "Lady Windermere's Fan." Performances are 7:30 p.m., Nov. 10-12 and Nov. 16-19 in the Temple Building's Howell Theatre.
Wilde’s wit and insight are exacting in this comedy riddled with gossip, misunderstandings, and unknown identities. Everyone in London (including his distressed wife) believes that Lord Windermere is having an affair with the mysterious Mrs. Erlynne. However, not everything is as it seems.
UNL cast members are undergraduate theater majors. The production features Emily Martinez as Lady Windermere. The husband Lord Windermere is played by Nate Ruleaux. The mysterious Mrs. Erlynne is played by Calandra Daby.
Other cast members are: Grant Alsup, Sarah Arten, Brandon Aylor, Stephanie Bourgeois, Clare Carl, Bradley Christian-Sallis, Jordan Deffenbaugh, Amanda Flock, Bryan Howard, Shade Ingraham, Billy Jones, Kayla Klammer, Hunter Larrison, Mike Lee, Christina Leonard, Meghan Modrovsky, Lucy Myrtue, Ryan Rabstejnek, Madison Smith, Alison Solkan, Cale Yates and Patrick Zatloukal.
The production is directed by Carrie Lee Patterson, assistant professor of practice. Designers include Jacob Heger (scenic) and Mallory Prucha (costumes), both graduate students. Matt Baye (lighting) is an undergraduate designer. The production is stage-managed by undergraduate Nikki Kelly.
