Three Farcical Arts of the Deal: Peas, Patelin, and Purgation

Peas
Fine Arts Building Cellar Theatre (Room 55)

Directed by Marla Carlson

University Theatre Studio Series

An old down-on-his-luck lawyer sets off an endless chain of deceit that backfires on him.  A young husband turns a messy accident to his advantage.  A foolish man attempts to sell a sack of peas hampered by the worst memory ever.  These three farces demonstrate the difficulty of living harmoniously when our needs conflict with others and the dangers of negotiating with those we don’t trust.Tickets are $12, $7 for students.
