South Bend Civic Theatre To present ONE SLIGHT HITCH
It's Courtney's wedding day, and her mom is making sure that the groom is perfect, the dress is perfect, and the decorations (assuming they arrive) will be perfect. Then, like in any good farce, the doorbell rings and all hell breaks loose. So much for perfect. You'll enjoy this delightful and warm-hearted comedy by the popular standup comic Lewis Black.
BWW Review: ANGELS IN AMERICA: MILLENNIUM APPROACHES at The Acting Ensemble
Under the direction of James Geisel, The Acting Ensemble opened their newest show, Angels in America: Millennium Approaches, this past Friday. The play is the first part of Tony Kushner's winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Drama, with the second part coming later in the season as a staged reading. The play is a highly recognized and award winning piece of theatre that looks at the AIDS epidemic in the 1980's, through the experiences of various characters. The Acting Ensemble's approach is to take the play and strip it of all the fancy production elements that usually accompanies the play, and leave Kushner's words as the most dramatic element.

Photo Flash: First Look at South Bend Civic Theatre's STICKS AND BONES
Written by acclaimed playwright David Rabe and directed by Scott Jackson, STICKS AND BONES is a darkly humorous story of a "perfect" family dealing with the horrors of war's aftermath when their eldest son returns home scarred physically and mentally. Winner of the Tony Award for its original production in 1971, the play continues to resonate as a scathing look at the cost of war on family.
