SCTC: Miss Margarida's Way AND Shooting Rats
"Miss Margarida's Way" is the first half of our company's exploration into personal identity. Watch as Miss Margarida, an 8th grade teacher, tests the limits of the audience's tolerance of abuse, and forces us to ask "Who is in charge of who I am?" Portrayed by Nick Chris, Miss Margarida is a force of nature that will shock, awe, and inspire you.
"Shooting Rats" is the second half of our company's exploration into personal identity. A man and a woman are on their first date--in a garbage dump. As the evening progresses, they take on the herculean task of truly getting to know someone else: Who are we without the stuff we carry? What do we become will everything is stripped away? Is it worth the risk?

Thursday & Friday at 7:00pm & 8:30pm
Saturday at 2:00pm & 7:00pm
