A Winner of the Obie Award and a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize, Donald Margulies’ Sight Unseen tells a smart and funny story of unreconciled passion. Jonathan Waxman, a superstar painter revisits his former lover and her British husband at their English farmhouse. In taut scenes that dart from past to present and back, time and memory transform feelings as characters wrestle with perceptions of art, Jewish identity, the past and their own relationships and longing.

Credo for the stage is a Middlebury based performing arts company dedicated to ensemble collaboration and artistic risk. Their mission is to produce edgy, socially minded plays and bold original works for the stage while creating a transforming and deep connection to community.

The Magic Begins with Magicians Without Borders
“At the UN, we have a department of security, of housing, of food and clothing for refugees. After seeing the children respond to your magic show, I realize we need a department for the imagination. We feed the refugee’s body, your magic feeds their souls.”
—Peter Okoye, UNHCR
