members.
General Public $12/Seniors, Students and Staff $10
After Ashley is a blisteringly funny and deeply affecting story
about a teenage boy navigating the joys and terrors of life—all
through the distorting prism of a media firestorm. When a family
tragedy deals the Hammond family a dose of dubious celebrity,
Justin finds himself paralyzed, unable to fully grieve or grow up.
The only bright spot is a girl, only Justin can’t decide if she’s a
saving angel or a self-interested groupie. In a world as weird as
this one, she might just be both.

No Exit
by Jean-Paul Sartre, adapted from the French by Paul Bowles
General Public $12/Seniors, Students and Staff $10
Jean-Paul Sartre’s classic existential play features three distinctly
different (yet perfectly suited for each other) characters who find
themselves in a world where they may never sleep, never dream,
never let go. The room’s only door offers no escape.
No Exit is
a disturbingly accurate depiction of human vices and deceptions.
It makes the point that the emotional tortures we create for
ourselves and for others are far worse than any which could be
created in Hell.

A Midsummer Night’s Dream
By William Shakespeare
FREE ADMISSION
The delightful romantic comedy of mismatched lovers,
enchanted forests and Puck, the famously mischievous sprite,
will play out against the dramatic background of the Gateway, a
perfect stage for the magic-comic misadventures of the king
and queen of the fairies, human lovers and bumbling rustic folk.
As Shakespeare himself says, “The course of true love never did
run smooth.”
