Gustav - The Goose
Who Wouldn’t Fly
The Great Goose Migration is about to begin, and
Papa Goose is determined to break the record for
fastest migration. There is only one problem-his
son Gustav doesn’t want to fly, but to be a golf
course architect instead. Not wanting to disappoint
the family, Gustav decides to walk from Canada
to Mexico, meeting a few silly characters along
the way. Gustav, the Goose Who Wouldn’t Fly
is a hole-in-one comedy for the “hole” family!

Chicago
For Mature Audiences
A classic story of two murderesses competing for
the limelight in Chicago during the Jazz Age, told
through the language of song and dance. Sent to
jail after a crime of passion, Roxie Hart turns to
smooth-talking attorney Billy Flynn. Roxie captures
the media’s attention, much to the dismay of Velma
Kelly, another celebrity criminal. Chicago is a
sizzling take on corruption and celebrity status.

The Little Foxes
Set in a small Alabama town in 1900, The Little
Foxes tells the story of the three Hubbard siblings
and their struggle for wealth and power. The fight
over a cotton mill which is sure to rake in money
takes precedence over family loyalty and honor,
resulting in murder, blackmail and betrayal.
This dramatic tale depicts the dark side of the

Boundless
Escaping the confines of the traditional stage for
the outside world, choreographers are presented
with remarkable opportunities to envision creating
dance. Unusual venues across the beautiful
UCM campus provide a vantage point where
exciting and unexpected things can happen.
Imaginations will soar as boundaries disappear
in our spring dance concert, Boundless, a celebration
of dance without limits.
Follow dancers across campus as they
make UCM landmarks their stage.
