Class Dismissed – Apr 18-May 4

ABOUT

Your favorite professor slides into dementia; while his two grad-students hallucinate a post-capitalist manifesto; and his nemesis – the Other-Lit-Professor – performs love poems inspired by her affair in a prestigious artist colony.

 Anticipate your (consensual) participation as we peel yuca, improvise dances, make butter, and invite the audience onstage to eat (bread), drink (Puerto Rican rum), write on the set (with chalk), and swap books (that they bring to the show). With live music, sing-alongs, and a different guest artist at each performance. This is the grad school you wish you went to.
