In an era of cinema polluted with remakes and theatrical sequels, there is a rare, electric energy found in a local theatre where students are building a world entirely from scratch. At the Marilyn I. Walker School of Fine and Performing Arts, the student-led company of DART 4D56: Collaborative Play Development didn’t just put on a play; they constructed a living, breathing nightmare.

Considering your first year at university can cost as much as a decent used car, you might feel like you're paying to be stressed out. You’ll need to account for sprawling class sizes and massive lecture halls, hours of tutorials and seminars, five-dollar lattes and the mandatory purchases of expensive textbooks.
