The IU Theatre and Dance is back for an exciting twelfth year featuring a world premiere musical as its showcase production with book, music, and lyrics by third year M.F.A. playwriting candidate David Davila and direction by third year M.F.A. directing candidate Lauren Diesch. , takes us ten-thousand years into the future to find a group of rebel troubadours surrounded on all sides by the deadly forces of an oppressive regime. In their last few moments of freedom they have only one chance left to pass along the tale of “Vox Populi,” a sacred secret that tells of the rise and fall of a great mythical society. Can they pass along the legend before they're captured, and save future democracies from corruption?
