A minimalist work of experimental theater, "Small Mouth Sounds" casts the audience as voyeurs in an entertaining adventure that gradually turns more serious. Set at a rustic retreat, the dramedy, presented by the UC Davis Department of Theatre and Dance, opens Feb. 27 in the Wyatt Pavilion Theatre.

UC Davis Granada Artist-in-Residence and "Who’s There?" director Sinéad Rushe and a crew of six student actors are turning William Shakespeare’s "Hamlet" inside out. The production, which debuts May 16 at the Wyatt Pavilion Theatre in Davis, seeks to explore human psychology through Hamlet’s shifting roles, thoughts and desires.
