Ochre House Theater to Present World Premiere of ST. ELLA

Ochre House Theater will open its 2022-23 season with a new and biting comedy, ST. ELLA, written and directed by Artistic Director Matthew Posey. The production will run at The Ochre House Theater, 825 Exposition Ave, Dallas, TX 75226, from September 7 to September 24, 2022. There is a "Donate-What-You-Can" night on Monday, September 12.
