A special event for students in the Moreau First-Year Seminar.
Performances on Sunday, October 11, at 6:00 p.m. and 7:30 p.m.
"RED CUP" is an one-act documentary theatre performance (a stage work based on real material) inspired by written essays from Notre Dame students on the drinking culture in college, a culture often associated with "rest" or "leisure."
The play is inspired by the final papers written for the course Drunk on Film: The Psychology of Storytelling with Alcohol and Its Effects on Alcohol Consumption at Notre Dame. With a visual motif of the ubiquitous red solo party cup, and accompanied by a host of media references from films, ads, and social media posts, "RED CUP" tells the intimate stories of a small group of Notre Dame students, and the profound effect alcohol has had in their lives, from childhood through their senior year in college.
