OH DAD, POOR DAD, MAMMA’S HUNG YOU IN THE CLOSET AND I’M FEELIN’
SO SAD a pseudoclassical tragifarce in a bastard French tradition
by
Arthur Kopit
Oct. 11-Nov. 10, 2007
A.S.U.-West
and Herberger Theater Center
Mommy, dearest, move over! This mamma’s packing a live piranha, a man-eating
Venus flytrap and her stuffed, dead husband, not to mention a stamp and coin collection to die for (literally). Poor mommy
and her cuckolded son are looking to get away from it all. After checking into a hotel in Havana (more like invading it),
mayhem ensues until dear old dad, literally, falls out of the closet.

THE COLORED MUSEUM
by
George C. Wolfe
Jan.18-Feb. 2, 2008
Herberger Theater Center
Step up. Step inside. Welcome to “The Colored Museum.” Inside,
some of the finest ‘exhibits’ of African-American myths, mis- and preconceptions, pain and anguish. Before there
was “In Living Color” or “Mad TV” there was George Wolfe’s collection of satire and parody known
as “The Colored Museum.”
GROSS INDECENCY: THE THREE TRIALS OF OSCAR WILDE
by Moises Kaufman
May 9-May 24, 2008
Herberger Theater Center
Using trial transcripts, interviews, articles and
correspondence of the day, we follow the ‘trial of the century’-- the trials of Oscar Wilde. Trying to defend
himself from the statement, “posing sodomite,” Wilde suddenly had to defend not only his sexuality but his own
writing, plays and art. This is the harrowing true story of the downfall and de-construction of one of the world’s greatest
writers.
