They shape the vision, steady every hand,
Help messy questions turn into a plan.
From before the first rehearsal to the final cue,
They hold the frame that lets the story move.
Directing, designing, guiding what we do—
And making space for students to shine through.

The faculty and staff directors, designers, and mentors are really the glue that holds everything together. Don't miss your chance to see all of the hard work that was put into this production. The final performance is this afternoon at 2 p.m.!

One final night for tales both false and true,
One final chance to see it all play through.

When lights must shift and costumes need a tie,
When sound must land the second, not drift by—
They move in sync where backstage shadows grow,
And make the magic seamless to the show.
Wardrobe, boards, and crew who run it all—
If it works perfectly, you’ll never see them at all.

We couldn't do it without our team behind the scenes.
Wardrobe Crew - Kaylee Kramer and Caleb Jozwiak
Light Board Operator - Ember Contreras
Sound Board Operator - Emily Konrad
Scenery Run Crew Dominic A'ddario

The end draws near, the curtain soon will fall,
On tricks, on truths, on one last laugh for all.
If you’ve been waiting—this is your sign,
Because “I’ll go later” runs out of time.

Only two performances remaining! Get your tickets before it's too late!

Make haste, make haste! The hour will not delay—
Our merry frauds soon vanish from the stage.
What once was false may yet be fondly missed;
Come see the lie that no one can resist.

Five minds attuned to every hush and cue,
They shape what’s heard—and what feels true.
A door, a step, a moment set to sound,
And suddenly, the world is all around.
You may not see their work—but you’ll hear it everywhere.

A special thank you to the sound design team - Trevor Book, Zoe Evans-Griffin, Zachary Prybylski, Jasper Stevens, and David Virrueta. Come hear the results of their hard work!

Seats grow scarce as the stories grow tall,
And soon there may be none left at all.
Don’t wait too long, don’t risk the miss—
A lie this fun you won’t want to dismiss.
Grab your tickets while you still can.

He designed the space where every lie takes flight,
Shaped walls for whispers, doors for swift delight.
A world appears where moments once were none,
Then shifts again before the scene is done.
It’s more than a set—it’s where the whole story lives.

Zachary Martinez is the set designer and prop manager for The Liar. This is his first set design at UW-Whitewater, and he did a great job! He would like to thank his family, friends, and girlfriend for bolstering his zeal for theater. Come see the world Zachary created for The Liar now through May 2.

Good friends, take note—this story twists and spins,
Where truth gets blurred and mischief always wins.
It’s love, it’s lies, it’s chaos (in a fun way),
So come see what everyone is talking about.
