For 10-hard-luck Texans, a new lease on life is so close they can touch it.  Under a scorching sun for days on end, armed with nothing but hope, humor and ambition, they'll fight to keep at least one hand on a brand-new truck in order to win it.  In the hilarious, hard-fought contest that is Hands on a Hardbody, only one winner can drive away with the American Dream.
Inspired by the true events of the acclaimed 1997 documentary of the same name by S. R. Bindler, produced by Kevin Morris and Bindler

Sunday, November 11, 2018 at 3:00 PM

Romantic entanglements, mistaken identity, cross-dressing, and duels in the dark - sound familiar?  But this delirious farce was written by a nun... in the 17th Century!  Once of the few plays of the era to be written by a woman, House of Desires tells the hilarious story of a scheming brother and sister who are entangled in a complicated web of love with four others, all hiding away under one roof.  Strict rules of honor and propriety mean that they are not allowed to be alone with one another, so, with the help of a few wily servants, mayhem ensues as all six lovers struggle to steal moments with each other, and we try to work out who really loves whom.

Sawyer Theatre
1st Floor, 国产AV Fine Arts Building

Based on Charles Dickens' final unfinished novel, this hilarious whodunit invites the audience to solve its mystery by choosing the identity of the murderer.  The tale is presented as a show within a show, as the Music Hall Royale - a delightfully loony Victorian theatre company - presents Dickens' brooding mystery.  Songs from the musical include "Perfect Strangers," "Don't Quit While You're Ahead," and "Moonfall."
