Think the dead stay dead? Think again.
The Suffolk University Theatre Department is proud to present their Spring 2025 Mainstage Production:
Peter Malmö
A new adaptation of Pedro Páramo by Juan Rulfo.
Written by Raul Dorantes & Mark Litwicki
Directed by Armando Rivera
The story is set on a remote small island where death, memory, snow, and ash all call home. Johnny arrives there looking for his father only to discover his family’s and the town’s past. Through the echoes of memories from the island’s residents, Johnny embarks on a doomed path through the ruins of town and the man who laid waste to it: Peter Malmö.

The Suffolk University Theatre Department is a student-centered department. Students write, direct, and design their own original plays and intern with leading theatre companies, both at Suffolk’s Modern Theatre and with organizations throughout the United States. Students work in classic, musical, and experimental genres with a special focus on new work.
The Suffolk University Theatre Department’s Mainstage Productions are held twice a year in Suffolk University’s Modern Theatre, located in Boston’s Theater District. These productions feature a contemporary or new play, directed by a Theatre Department faculty member or a guest artist. Theatre Department productions in the Modern are high-profile opportunities for student artists to be seen by the university and larger Boston community.
