Texas State University Presents A BEHANDING IN SPOKANE, Now thru 11/9

Texas State University's Department of Theatre and Dance is presenting the play A Behanding in Spokane tonight, Nov. 6 through Nov. 9.

In Martin McDonagh's first American-set play, a man has been searching for his missing left hand for almost half a century. Enter two bickering lovebirds with a hand to sell, and a hotel clerk with an aversion to gunfire, and we're set for a darkly comic roller coaster of love, hate, desperation and hope.

"On the surface it is a twisted black comedy that pulls no punches and revels in the offensive and obscene. But, at its core it is really a tall tale of a determined man and his desperate and horrific search to reclaim that which was taken from him," says director Daniel Anderson.

The opening night for A Behanding in Spokane will be Thursday, Nov. 6, and runs through Sunday, Nov. 9. All performances will be in the PHS Foundation Studio Theatre. Individual tickets start at $15 for adults and $8 for students, and may be purchased by phone at 512-245-6500 or online at txstatepresents.com.
