Sullivant's Travels

1:00 - 3:00pm
4:00 – 6:00pm*

Sullivant Hall, 1813 N High Street Columbus Ohio 43210
Commissioned by the College of Arts and Sciences, choreographer Stephan Koplowitz has created a promenade, site-specific work to honor the physicality of building. Entitled Sullivant’s Travels, this series of eleven distinctive and multi-disciplinary events will take audiences on a journey to encounter the nooks, crannies, studios, classrooms and theatre in unique ways. Some are durational and others time specific. It will not be possible to see everything in one performance. Like immersive theatre, everyone will have a slightly different experience and view as the journey through Sullivant Hall.
* Due to the sequence of events, alumni are strongly encouraged to attend the second performance

Champagne and Dessert Reception

Circa 6:00pm: Following the final performance of Sullivant’s Travels
