The Blackbox Theatre

In spring, 2004, Butler Theatre, the Indianapolis Chamber Orchestra, and Indianapolis Opera came together for the production of Peter Brook's Carmen. The production took place in the black box theatre, with the main action confined to a 20-ft.“arena” of sand. Directed by John Green, the production capped of a year of innovative theatre, drawing on international influences, as well as presenting provocative student productions by Butler Theatre's own unique cast of players.
