SAS Players Preview “The Ants” Before Fringe Festival


St. Andrew’s-Sewanee School’s theatre program offers its final production of the year, “The Ants,” Friday through Sunday, May 3–5, in McCrory Hall for the Performing Arts. The show tonight, May 3, and Saturday, May 4, are at 7 p.m.; the Sunday, May 5, performance is at 4 p.m. 

This production of “The Ants” will be presented in August when the troupe travels to the 2013 Fringe Festival in Edinburgh, Scotland. 

“Thank you to the entire Sewanee community for supporting the work of the St. Andrew’s-Sewanee School Theatre this school year as we fund-raise our way to Scotland,” said Robie Jackson, SAS performing arts coordinator. 

“If you saw our production of ‘The Ants’ last year, you will be seeing quite a different version of the show this weekend,” Jackson said. 

The production is one hour in length, is appropriate for all ages and combines humor, science, imagination, music and the writings of world-renowned entomologists E.O. Wilson and Bert Hölldobler. 

Ticket prices are $20 for adults and $10 for students. Jackson emphasized that no one will be turned away, “If last year’s prices ($10 for adults and $7 for students) fit your budget more comfortably, please feel welcome to use these admission prices,” she said.

Next year, all SAS productions will return to the regular admission price.
