JULY 28 - AUG 12

JU SWISHER THEATER

ABOUT THE SHOW

No Exit is an illuminating take on the existential tale where three recently deceased guests find themselves as co-residents of a room in hell. Their affable valet doesn’t quite answer all their questions. The guests must then figure out what comes next. Filled with dark humor, this version embraces the philosophy, the angst, the comedy and the tragedy of the possibility that hell might be other people. Of course, heaven might be other people, too. Laughter and tears could be mistaken for each other in this enlightening look into who we really are. The audience can peek into the afterlife and sense the resonance with their own lives on this side of death.
