Mary Moody Northen Theatre at St. Edward's University
3001 S. Congress, 512/448-8484
St. Edward’s University was one of the first institutions in the country to build a theatre in the round, and four decades later, this campus theatre on a hill is still one of the few such stages in the city. Almost all theatre department productions here feature students working alongside professional guest artists. The Mary Moody Northen offers not only some outstanding theatre, but an unobstructed and breathtaking view of downtown Austin.

Into the Woods
Who’s ready for a bedtime story? Because there’s nothing like Stephen Sondheim’s grand unification theory of the Brothers Grimm’s collection of German fairy tales. All your childhood folklore favorites become tangled up in the search for the cow as white as milk, the cape as red as blood, the hair as yellow as corn, and the slipper as pure as gold. Underneath the toe-tappers and cunning one-liners, there’s a fable about the perils of getting what you wished for and not paying attention to what you have, a moral reiterated by a witch who’s not good, not nice; just right. – Richard Whittaker Through April 21.
