The Man of Destiny
By George Bernard Shaw
Directed by Amy Wagner
May 6 – 16, 2010 (Tues – Sat @ 8pm; Sun @ 3pm)
In one of Shaw's funniest comedies, we meet a young Napoleon Bonaparte, who has just begun his infamous Italian Campaign. The fledgling general's success is at stake when a spy makes off with important dispatches. Desperate to find the documents, and a bit of respect, “The Little Corporal’s” heroic posturing is challenged by a saucy Italian innkeeper, a bumbling lieutenant, and a mysterious lady, who engages this would-be Caesar in a battle of wits that could leave him altogether defeated.

No Exit

No Exit is Jean-Paul Sartre's existentialist masterpiece from 1944. Three strangers are locked in a room together in the afterlife, left to contemplate their sins and situation, and to suffer a new brand of torture...spending an eternity with "other people".
