Toliver & Wakeman

Colgate University Theater

Colgate University Theater Fall 2024 production of "Toliver & Wakeman" by Kyle Bass.

Brehmer Theatre

Set in the "dark room of history," steeped in fantasy, and live music, Toliver &amp; Wakeman fantasizes the Civil War experiences of two Union soldiers, one Black, one White and each harboring a secret. How do they bond while fighting the same enemy but not the same war? With vibrant theatricality, Toliver &amp; Wakeman explores the fluidity of American identities, the longing for home, the unrelenting grip of history, and the meanings of freedom.Please join us after the performance on Friday, October 18 for a community discussion with playwright Kyle Bass, historian Diane Ciccone '74, P'10, and dramaturg Ashley Thomas.Presented by the Department of Theater. Sponsored by Christian A. Johnson Fund, Africana and Latin American Studies, Ciccone Commons, Department of English, Department of History, University Studies, Upstate Institute, and the Chenango County Historical Society. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------TOLIVER &amp; WAKEMAN by Kyle Bass Copyright ©2023 All rights reserved.
