CU Presents Picnic, a Pulitzer Prize Winning Play

University of Colorado’s CU Performing Arts Department presents, Picnic, a Pulitzer Prize-winning play, by William Inge. Picnic explores potent universal themes of gender, sexuality and its repression, and the gap between desire and reality. Inge was praised alongside such lofty peers as Eugene O’Neill, Arthur Miller and Tennessee Williams. He saw success both in New York — actor Paul Newman made his Broadway debut in Picnic — and Hollywood, where the film version of the play won two Oscars in 1955. Playing October 4 to 13 on campus at the University Theatre. Get tickets here.
