Performance

On April 19 at 7 p.m., Oral Roberts University’s Student Association will be holding the second annual ORU 168 Film Festival. This year the festival is the product of a competition between three teams of ORU students who will create a three to six minute film within a mere 168 hours.

 

In that short amount of time the teams work to write, film and produce a film with a shared theme, prop and line chosen by SA.

 

The theme this year was “battle,” and teams must use the prop of a toothbrush and the line “somebody that I used to know.”

If you didn’t get the opportunity to see “Hello, Dolly!” last weekend in Howard Auditorium, you missed out on the former Broadway hit show which made its debut in the 30s.

 

The play centers around the main character, Dolly Levi, a matchmaker widow who decides she’s going to marry again following the death of her late husband.

 

Senior Kelsey Carroll played the lead as her last performance on ORU’s stage. Junior Will Acker played Cornelius Hackl, the male lead.

Along with cast and crew, director Laura Holland gears up for the musical production of the year.


“Hello Dolly” was a show on Broadway in the 1930s, and centers around the main character Dolly Levi.


“It’s about a matchmaker widow that has decided that she is going to join the human race again and that she’s going to marry again,” Holland said.
