Execution Play

An atheist prisoner on death row and the Catholic priest sent to give him last rites spend the last forty-five minutes of the inmate's life locked in a challenging, passionate, and intimate dialogue about faith, mortality, and what it means to have been here. Their brief encounter raises the question: what connects us as people, if anything connects us at all?

Emerging Artists returns with their one-of-a-kind festival. Visit the theater any evening during this three-week event, and you'll find yourself transported in a number of surprising ways: by a single performer embodying a whole host of characters; by a more experimental theater piece "done differently" that challenges and delights; by a cozy two-person show exploring relationships; or perhaps by a bouncy new musical that will have you humming. Emerging Artists has always been about new works, new talents, new voices. That's never been more evident than now.

NO REFUNDS will be granted.
