"Dubliners" by James Joyce
In “Dubliners,” an original theatrical adaptation of the James Joyce novel, fifteen stories unfold in a parade of moments as the characters share their memories, nightmares and dreams.
Created collaboratively by the ensemble over nine weeks, the production is the brainchild of SLC senior Sarah Plotkin. Part of the Theatre Department’s Mainstage Fall Season, it includes movement, music, improvisation, and puppetry.
The concept of exploring the Joyce text in a theatrical way was born in a course President Karen Lawrence, a Joycean scholar, teaches at the College. Plotkin took the course, “Who’s Afraid of James Joyce,” in her sophomore year.

“Commenting on the show Plotkin says: "It is an event of struggle and epiphany. The characters are trapped in a metaphorical cycle of struggle and realization, never actually leading to action.”
