Theatre: William Golding's ‘Lord of the Flies’


  • The Chicago Academy for the Arts 1010 West Chicago Avenue Chicago, IL, 60642 United States (map)

Join the Theatre Department for their Spring Play: William Golding's Lord of the Flies, adapted for the stage by Nigel Williams.

Lord of the Flies is one of the most enduring novels of our time. The book's explorations of the human condition make it essential reading in middle and high schools throughout the world. Nigel Williams’ adaptation of the work illuminates Golding's premise that when cultures cease efforts towards cooperation, instead overvaluing mechanisms for gaining power, the worst instincts of our frail psyches threaten to take over.

Performances:

  • Friday, May 1 at 7:00 p.m.

  • Saturday, May 2 at 3:00 p.m. & 7:00 p.m.

  • Sunday, May 3 at 2:00 p.m.
