Written and performed by British actor Stephen Williams, the one-man show has a deceptive twist. Throughout, audiences are left to wonder if they are watching the in-flight entertainment during a trip aboard a UFO or just peering through the bathroom mirror at an actor rehearsing Edgar Allen Poe's The Tell-Tale Heart. Reality shifts back and forth, drawing the audience into the action.
UFO Pilot was first performed in London in 1979 at the Institute of Contemporary Arts.
In other roles, Williams has portrayed Ariel alongside Sir John Gielgud's Prospero in The Tempest at the National Theatre Company in London, and played a parrot, a mad Turkish customs officer and a berserk bean-snorting acid-head in Ken Campbell's renowned production of The Warp.
A founding member of Steven Berkoff's Group, Williams appeared in two of the company's original productions and has performed on stage in England and Broadway and appeared in several television productions.
Tickets for UFO Pilot are available at the Hartshorn box office. Cost is $8 for the general public and $5 for UD students.
