Students, Staff and Faculty

Join us for a bus trip to Toronto and Studio 180

 

The Canadian premiere of

THE OVERWHELMING

 

Thursday, April 1, 2010

 

Named a 2007 Top Ten Play of the Year by Time Magazine and Time Out New
York, The Overwhelming, by award-winning playwright J.T. Rogers, is a
riveting examination of the mounting tensions in 1994 Rwanda and a war that
cannot be comprehended or controlled. 

 

American academic Jack Exley travels to Rwanda to interview old friend
Joseph Gasana about his struggle for good against daunting odds. But when
Jack arrives in Kigali, he is unable to find the Tutsi doctor - or anyone
who will even admit to having known him. Befriended by both locals and
diplomats with veiled motives, Jack and his family become enmeshed in the
tension, terror, professional risks and personal betrayals that they
ultimately realize mark the start of a genocidal war.
