The FC Art Department is proud to introduce the Biennial Faculty Exhibition. Instructor talent is made all too clear inside these four walls; they not only work in a variety of styles and media, but they also constantly seek new voices and new possibilities.
An authentic American classic, this powerful and vital play captures the sardonic humor and the grief, both private and universal of Thomas Wolfe's coming-of-age novel by the same name. Concentrating on the last third of Wolfe's story, the play vividly portrays Eugene Gant, his mother, who is obsessed by her material holdings. Eugene maintains barriers against the love of her family, his father, a stonecutter imprisoned by his failures, and the brother who never breaks away.
