Paradise Lost by Erin Shields: An adaptation of John Milton’s epic tale
Directed by Debbie Swann
April 25, 26, May 1, 2, 3, 7:30 p.m.; matinees April 27, May 4, 2 p.m.

The 2024-2025 season ends with one of the most famous poems in the English language, John Milton’s 17th-century tale Paradise Lost, an epic story about fallen angels and faulty humans searching for meaning through our temptations. In Erin Shields’s adaptation for the stage, Lucifer is a woman cast out of Heaven who crafts a plan for revenge and betrayal on the Almighty. Professor Debbie Swann directs Shields’s wickedly smart script, where the debate over right and wrong has never been so tantalizing.
