Coming events ... University’s ‘Buried Child’ brings up memories Sam Shepard's play Buried Child opens on the university’s Robinson Theatre tomorrow night at 8 p.m. The story: When Vince (Michael Callahan) re turns home with his girlfriend Shelly (Deanna Du plechain), his bucolic memories of the Illinois farm are shattered by the reality of his eccentric grandparents, Dodge (Tyler Bass) and Halie (Bright Olson); his half-crazed father, Tilden (M.W. Mitchell); and his brutal uncle, Bradley (Martin Steiner). As Vince tries to instill his memories in the others, a darker family memory surfaces. University theater professor James Moy directs the play. Playdates are April 24, 25, 29-30 and May 1-2 at the theater in Villard Hall.
