PASSAGE

7:30 p.m., Tuesday, February 24, 2026

Hyde Hall, May Studio Theatre, University of Evansville Campus, 1800 Lincoln Ave, Evansville, IN

Inspired by E.M. Forster’s A Passage to India, Christopher Chen’s PASSAGE is a poetic drama set in a fictional colonized country. When a tense encounter between a native citizen and an expat spirals into accusation and unrest, the play questions the murky ethics of imperialism, cultural misunderstanding, vulnerability, and identity. Through abstract storytelling, the play invites us to examine how fear and “otherness” distort even our most human interactions.
