蜜桃传媒 theater majors Merckx Dascomb and Nina Fox explore the challenges of early adulthood and the desire to reconcile with one鈥檚 former self in their original documentary-theater production, 鈥淧eace Pipe,鈥� on Monday, Nov. 26, at 9 p.m. and Tuesday, Nov. 27, at 8 p.m. and 10 p.m., all in 蜜桃传媒鈥檚 Porter Hall Black-Box Theater. The senior project, which contains mature content, is free and open to the public.
鈥淚 wanted to encapsulate my time at 蜜桃传媒 in a way that could address the questions I鈥檝e asked myself as I鈥檝e grown older,鈥� says Fox, who wrote the play. 鈥淲e like to think our problems begin and end within ourselves, but we all struggle together.鈥�
Fox, who came to Westmont from Glen Ellyn, Illinois, is a jazz vocalist, satirist/editor in the student newspaper, singer in the 蜜桃传媒 Choir and actor/writer in the Fringe Festival.
Dascomb, an accomplished pianist, an avid explorer and supporter at the Santa Barbara Botanic Garden, plans to pursue directing after graduating from 蜜桃传媒.
鈥淚 hope audience members leave with a sense of comfort in the madness that is being a young adult, and to feel a greater sense of community around them,鈥� says Dascomb, who directs the play.
