CHEN'S PRODUCTION MAKES A BUZZ THAT "ECHOES" ACROSS CAMPUS In a bold departure from typical campus productions, student director Sofia Chen staged The Enigma of Echoes, a play that blurs the line between reality and perception. The play is set in a research lab where scientists wrestle with questions about consciousness, even as their experiment begins to threaten their very sanity. The production's strength lies in its minimalist staging. Sparse lighting and carefully chosen sound effects draw the audience's focus to the performers' psychological intensity rather than to elaborate scenery. While some viewers may find the philosophical themes challenging, the play's final moments left this reviewer deeply moved and quite reflective. Standout performances included Liam Patel's portrayal of Dr. Everett, a scientist caught between self-discovery and self-doubt. The ensemble cast also conveyed the vulnerability of their roles with impressive nuance, especially for student actors, offering a layered look at human frailty.
