Bloomsday

by Steven Dietz

Robert returns to Dublin to reunite with Cait, the woman who captured his heart during a James Joyce literary tour thirty-five years ago. Dancing backwards through time, the older couple retrace their steps to discover their younger selves. Through young Robbie and Caithleen, they relive the unlikely, inevitable events that brought them—only briefly—together. This Irish time-travel love story blends wit, humor, and heartache into a buoyant, moving appeal for making the most of the present before it is past.

Theatre at Colorado Mountain College has been in existence for over thirty years, first under the direction of Tom Cochran, then Gary Ketzenbarger. Brad Moore provides leadership today. In 2009 we introduced an Associate of Arts with an emphasis in Theatre degree, enabling students to transfer their AA degree in full to four-year Theatre programs in the state of Colorado. CMC Theatre changed its name to Sopris Theatre Company at Colorado Mountain College to reflect our hybrid model of students and community members working together. This transformation reflects not only the growing breadth of the Theatre program, but also the nature of the company itself, which functions both educationally and as a true theatre of the community. CMC students and Roaring Fork Valley artists work side-by-side as actors, directors, designers, stage managers, and technicians.
Most recently, a Technical Theatre track was added to CMC’s Digital Media AAS degree, enabling theatre students to complete CMC’s new Bachelor of Applied Science in Integrated Media.
