Church by Young Jean Lee at student-run Yale Cabaret.

In Church, acclaimed playwright Young Jean Lee transforms the theatre into the site of an exuberant spiritual service for religious and non-religious individuals alike.  A charismatic preacher and three female reverends take you on a journey that is by turns, funny, musical, jarring, and ultimately moving.  Never content with simple parody, Lee’s ambitious aim with Church is to give her audience an authentic experience of theatrical faith.

You may purchase your $10.00 student ticket online at yalecabaret.org (http://yalecabaret.org).
Yale Cabaret, 217 Park Street.

Yale School of Drama
Iseman Theater
1156 Chapel Street

How do you do a play about war if you have never been in one? How do you do a play about war without a smoke machine? How does a person fall when they die? And can the days spent rehearsing love, hate, and helmets ever prepare an artist for sudden personal tragedy? A Duck on a Bike. A play about people. With a song. And some dancing.

A student-written and student-directed production.

You may receive one complimentary ticket to Duck on a Bike, subject to availability.
