Showcasing Beckett's verbal play and visual precision, as well as his political imagination, they meet our own moment -- fierce, funny, uncompromising, and compassionate as ever. \n\nFeatured plays: \n*Act Without Words II*\n*Play* \n*Come and Go*\n*Footfalls*\n*Rockaby*\n*Catastrophe*\n*What Where*\n*Quad*\n\nWritten by Samuel Beckett\n\nDirected by Malcolm Tulip", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"148642-21904558@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/148642", "building_id":"1005059", "building_name":"Walgreen Drama Center", "campus_maps_id":"526", "room":"Arthur Miller Theatre", "location_name":"Walgreen Drama Center", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"General Admission by Floor $35 | Students $16 (fees included)", "tags":["North Campus","Storytelling","Theater"], "website":"https:\/\/tickets.smtd.umich.edu\/6956", "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"School of Music, Theatre & Dance (SMTD)", "group_id":"155", "website":"http:\/\/smtd.umich.edu\/events" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2026\/09\/event_148642_original-2.png", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/09\/event_148642_original-2.png", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/09\/event_148642_original-2.png", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/09\/event_148642_original-2.png", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2026\/09\/event_148642_original-2.png", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/09\/event_148642_original-2.png", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2026\/09\/event_148642_original-2.png", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/09\/event_148642_original-2.png", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2026\/09\/event_148642_original-2.png", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2026\/09\/event_148642_original-2.png", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2026\/09\/event_148642_original-2.png", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/09\/event_148642_original-2.png", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2026\/09\/event_148642_original-2.png", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/09\/event_148642_original-2.png", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/09\/event_148642_original-2.png", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/09\/event_148642_original-2.png" }, "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21904558 } , "148645-21904561": { "datetime_modified":"20261001T121731", "datetime_start":"20261008T200000", "datetime_end":"20261008T230000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2026-10-08", "date_end":"2026-10-08", "time_start":"20:00:00", "time_end":"23:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"\"Crumbs from the Table of Joy\" by Lynn Nottage", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"\"Crumbs from the Table of Joy\" by Lynn Nottage: Faculty-Led Theatre & Drama Studio Production", "event_subtitle":"Faculty-Led Theatre & Drama Studio Production", "event_type":"Performance", "event_type_id":"15", "description":"*First come, first serve seating.
