The Arts

The Arts at SHU

The Arts are alive and well at Siena Heights!
This spring, Theatre Siena had a full production
schedule, including “August: Osage County”
and “Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet
Street” (below left). The annual alumni dinner
theater around the Sweeney Todd production
had nearly 100 people attend. The newly
created SHU Choir (left) has had a busy first
year, performing at numerous venues both
on and off campus. They are scheduled to
perform at the Vatican next winter. Music will
again be offered as a major this fall. Spring is
also time for many senior art exhibitions in the
Klemm Gallery. These shows are the pinnacle
of the art program and feature the best student
art Siena Heights has to offer. Pictured (below
right) is a piece entitled “Reprogram” from
Lyndsay Payne’s senior show titled “Analysis.”
This summer will be a busy one on campus in
the fine arts, including the Creative Stages
Fine Arts Camp in June for area youth.
