In response to what Yulman Theater Director Bill Finlay calls “an
unbelievable groundswell of 'let's do it again,'” Proctor's Too, a cutting edge
theater experience, is back with the College's Yulman Theater as its new home.
The season is to have three artists — once each term — starting with the Canadian
“clowns of horror” known as Mump & Smoot on Oct. 20 and 21. Of
e.e. i sing, a musical work based on the works of poet e.e. cummings (and directed by
Finlay) will be Jan. 12 and 13. The Idiot Variations, an exploration by performer
Rinde Eckert of the fine line between genius and lunacy, is set for April 12 and 13.
The artists are expected to meet with students in seminar settings, Finlay said.
Proctor's Too, begun nine years ago by Proctor's Theater as a way to cultivate younger
audiences interested in performance art, has been on hiatus for several years while its
previous home — the Nott Memorial — was undergoing restoration.
Tickets are $15 ($10 for students) or $40 for all three shows ($25 for students). For
