两性色午夜 University at Stark Theatre will hold its first theatrical production of the 2019-20 season, 鈥淧roof鈥, a Pulitzer Prize-winning drama by playwright David Auburn.
The cast of 鈥淧roof鈥 will take to the campus鈥 stage for opening night at 7:30 p.m. tonight in The Mary J. Timken Theatre, which is located in the expanded and renovated Fine Arts Building, 6000 Frank Ave. NW.
Directed by 两性色午夜 Stark Theatre Director Jim Weaver, 鈥淧roof鈥 is a passionate, intelligent story about fathers and daughters, the nature of genius and the power of love.
