Kiya Heartwood’s "Lying to the Sea Gypsy" Opens Jan. 28
Converse College and The Spartanburg Repertory Company are pleased to announce the presentation of “Lying to the Sea Gypsy” written by Converse senior Kiya Heartwood, on January 28-30 in Hazel B. Abbott Theatre. “Lying to the Sea Gypsy” is a musical tale of a young girl and her adventures on the high seas with pirates. The girl wants to be a pirate more than anything, but discovers that getting what you want isn’t always exactly what you expect. Attendees should be prepared to sing and dance and to meet a witch, a few brave and funny people and a few pleasant and not so pleasant pirates.
This is a show for all ages, with special interest for the younger audience. The production, sponsored in part by a Converse College Creative Collaboration grant, is directed by Associate Professor of Voice, Susan Lyle and Miriam Davidson. Technical design is by Assistant Professor of Theatre, Brent Glenn.
