Devising "Inheritance": Students connect from a distance

Students from the schools of Drama and Design & Production collaborated to create a new devised work, "Inheritance," that was safely performed for an in-person audience in Fall 2020 at Brookstown Inn in Winston-Salem.

Creating "Inheritance" provided a meaningful way for students to reflect on the world that has been passed down to them, and what they will leave behind for the next generation. A distanced audience watched from the courtyard through the windows of the Inn, as the characters' stories unfolded, interconnected across their siloed spaces.
