Chaos ensues, and guests must work to dispel rumors, cover-ups, and mistaken identities in a witty and comedic fashion.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>\u201cRumors is such a wild ride, and I cannot wait to bring the campus community into our space to experience easily the funniest show we&#8217;ve put on in several years,\u201d Student Assistant Director Sarah Jakubowski \u201926 said. \u201cThere are so many amazingly talented students, staff, and guest artists working together to make this happen, and we are all beyond thrilled to share what we&#8217;ve spent all semester putting together.\u201d<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Tempest Theatre\u2019s set design for the play will be their most ambitious in recent years. It includes multiple stories, doorways, and several fun surprises to enhance the high-energy comedy in the show. Encore, Elizabethtown College\u2019s Alumni Theatre Affinity Group, helped with the set and costumes as part of one of their service days on Sept. 29 during Etown\u2019s annual homecoming celebration.<\/p>\n<p>Alumni helped to install the second floor of the set, hung and cabled lights, organized the costume shop, and pulled costumes from inventory for the show.<\/p>\n<p>Jakubowski will work with director Kristin Wolanin, a long-time performer, director, and educator in the Lancaster Area. Wolanin has previously worked with Tempest Theatre as the director of \u201cAlice in Wonderland\u201d in fall 2022 and as the dialect coach for \u201cThe Language Archive&#8221; in fall 2023 and \u201cMelancholy Play\u201d in spring 2024.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Elizabethtown College\u2019s Tempest Theatre will present \u201cRumors\u201d by Neil Simon for its fall production. \u201cRumors\u201d will be performed at 7:30 p.m on Nov. 8, 9, 15, and 16 and at 3 p.m. on Nov. 10 and 16 in the Tempest Theatre, located in the Baugher Student Center (BSC).
