The SUNY Oswego Theatre Department hosted a transformative experience last weekend when the award-winning Tectonic Theater Project was on campus to share their devising method called Moment Work with students.

The company’s trademark technique has fostered Tectonic’s landmark plays including the 2024 Play Finalist for the Pulitzer Prize "Here There Are Blueberries," and the sentinel play "The Laramie Project," which SUNY Oswego will produce this fall in Tyler Hall’s Waterman Theatre from Oct. 16 to 20.

The Laker Thrive Series for Employees health and wellness initiative will continue this fall with a series of enriching activities aimed at promoting well-being and fostering community.
