Photo: SMU's ASSISTANCE Plays Final Performance on May 5

By:

Southern Methodist University's Meadows School of the Arts presents Leslye Headland's ASSISTANCE through May 5, directed by Samantha Rios.

A biting high-octane satire about our attraction to power and what we're willing to sacrifice to stay in its orbit. For these young assistants, life is an endless series of humiliations at the hands of their hellacious boss, a powerful uber-magnate. In rare moments of calm when the phone calls stop rollin', Nick and Nora and their traumatized co-workers question whether all their work will lead to success - or just more work. A welcome follow-up by Leslye Headland to her brilliant play Bachelorette.

Final performance of ASSISTANCE will be held Sunday, May 5, at 2PM at the Margo Jones Theatre. Tickets range in price from $7-$13. For tickets and more information, click here.
