the traveling show The Rivers Institute at Hanover College presents a touring program of one-act plays written, directed and performed by Hanover students. The plays vary in tone from wistful to dramatic to gently comedic, to appeal to a broad audience. Mystery writer Rex Stout appears in “Rex Stout Rings Again” and solves a case where he is the accused. Two other plays feature Sidney D. Crosier, the impressionist painter from Corydon, and Marilyn Miller, a Broadway and film star from Evansville who died tragically young. The Carnegie Center presented the exhibit Sidney D. Crosier: Hoosier Art Pioneer in 2008. Participants can bring a lunch, drinks are provided. “Ghost Light” by Chyna Cheaney
A young boy conquers the fear that keeps him from pursuing his dreams with the help of two great Hoosier performers from the heyday of vaudeville. This play features Marilyn Miller, star of the Vaudeville stage and Hollywood screen, from Evansville. She came to prominence in the Ziegfeld Follies of 1918 singing the music of Irving Berlin. “Rex Stout Rings Again” by James Wylder
Indiana author Rex Stout finds himself caught in a mystery straight out of one of his novels. How will he solve the case and clear his name? Author of the Nero Wolfe novels, Stout was born in Noblesville. He wrote in a wide variety of forms in addition to detective novels, including the short story, the novel, science fiction, and a political thriller, “The President Vanishes” (1934). “Crosier in Arcadia” by Tom Evans
As a young man, Sidney Crosier abandoned a promising art career in Cincinnati and the opportunity to study in Europe to take care of his aging mother in Corydon, but he continued painting until his death in 1930. This excerpt from a longer play by long-time Hanover College theater professor Tom Evans shows Crosier's creativity extending to his materials as well as his techniques.that’s perfect for the entire family.
