Philosophers of fiction routinely rely on an unexamined contrast class: nonfiction. The dominant assumption is that nonfiction is discourse meant to be believed (while fiction is discourse meant to be imagined or make-believed). This paper argues that this assumption about nonfiction is unsatisfying. Focusing on memoir and art criticism, I show that central nonfiction genres are not governed primarily by norms of belief. If nonfiction is not unified by an expectation or invitation to believe, then the make-believe/belief contrast cannot mark the boundary between fiction and nonfiction. We therefore need a more nuanced account of what, if anything, unifies nonfiction, if only to provide a more stable foundation for theorizing about fiction.

by Engelbert Humperdinck | libretto by Adelheid Wette
Based after the Brothers Grimm

Kevin Newbury, guest stage director
Raphael Jiménez, conductor

Hansel und Gretel is a story about the search for home, sustenance and security. Our production is set on the Lower East Side of New York City in the Summer of 1977, a time when New York was plagued by economic insecurity, a brutal heatwave and rampant crime, including the Son of Sam’s notorious killing spree. At the same time, downtown New York was experiencing a cultural Renaissance, from the genre-defining music scene to the gender-bending nightclub culture.

The young and curious Hansel and Gretel get lost “in the woods” in a foreign city — a city both dangerous and magical. Inspired by vibrant real-life characters like David Bowie and Andy Warhol, our production is a valentine to New York's rich history and culture. In fact, Summer 1977 featured the debut of an actual valentine: the now-legendary “I♥NY” campaign. Most of all, our production is a tribute to the wit, wonder and imagination of childhood, flourishing even in the face of great hardship. _____

Inspired by vibrant real-life characters like David Bowie and Andy Warhol, our production is a valentine to New York's rich history and culture. In fact, Summer 1977 featured the debut of an actual valentine: the now-legendary “I♥NY” campaign. Most of all, our production is a tribute to the wit, wonder and imagination of childhood, flourishing even in the face of great hardship. _____

Victoria Bussert, director
Matthew Webb, music director
In collaboration with Beck Center for the Arts

Nominated for nine Tony Awards ®, this musical proves you will be found. A powerful, deeply human musical about connection, identity, and the longing to belong. When Evan Hansen, a misunderstood high school student becomes caught in a web of lies born from good intentions, his story unexpectedly resonates with an entire community. Featuring a soaring, emotionally charged score, this musical explores the pressures of growing up in a hyperconnected world, and the courage it takes to be honest, even when it feels impossible.

“One of the most remarkable shows in musical theater history.”- The Washington Post

Presented in arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI).

Estimated Run Time: 2.5 hours including one intermission

Content Advisory
Dear Evan Hansen contains mature themes including suicide, grief, mental health challenges, anxiety, and discussion of self-harm. Recommended for ages 12+ with parental discretion. If you or someone you know is struggling, support is available by calling or texting 988. This production also uses strobe lighting, which may affect photosensitive viewers, and theatrical fog and haze throughout the performance.

Victoria Bussert, director
Matthew Webb, music director
In collaboration with Beck Center for the Arts

Nominated for nine Tony Awards ®, this musical proves you will be found. A powerful, deeply human musical about connection, identity, and the longing to belong. When Evan Hansen, a misunderstood high school student becomes caught in a web of lies born from good intentions, his story unexpectedly resonates with an entire community. Featuring a soaring, emotionally charged score, this musical explores the pressures of growing up in a hyperconnected world, and the courage it takes to be honest, even when it feels impossible.

“One of the most remarkable shows in musical theater history.”- The Washington Post

Presented in arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI).

Estimated Run Time: 2.5 hours including one intermission
