For the better, that is.

"Oh No Not Emily" is a Gilbert & Sullivan-like operetta based very loosely on actual events. It is the story of Molly Writerblock, an aspiring poet, as she enters a graduate English program. There she meets another newcomer to the department who is attempting to sell a hitherto unknown original poem by Emily Dickinson.Add supportive parents, older, helpful grad students, an extremely knowledgeable professor and an unseen Dean who communicates entirely through memos, and you have the recipe for a show that will have your entire campus buzzing. With "Oh No Not Emily" you get a show that has:

• 8 strong characters all of whom get their own songs and "time in the sun".
• A musical score that is continually rich and inventive. One song actually combines each of the chord triads based on the 11 semitones of the Western Musical scale (really).
• A show that lovingly, yet satirically, through song and dance examines academic life from the inside.
• Is available for very reasonable price (for a limited time).

Perfect audiences for this show are:

• Schools that have both Drama and English departments.
• People who exist in large bureaucracies.
• People who are in grad school and need to laugh about it .
• People who are thinking of going to grad school and want to know what is is really like.
• People who are paying for grad school and are curious about what they are spending all that money for.

In short, a show with something for everyone.

Or at least go and buy the cd!
