2nd Story Theatre Opens UpStage Season Tonight with ENRON

2nd Story Theatre opens its UpStage season with Enron, Lucy Prebble's darkly exhilarating play about the corporate crime that defined the end of the twentieth century. A cross between insightful analysis and savage satire, this unique business "thriller" dances gracefully between high finance and low comedy, between classical tragedy and theatre of the absurd. Of selecting a ripped-from-the-headlines, contemporary offering to kick start the season, Artistic Director Ed Shea says, "After a summer of died-in-the-wool classics, we're steppin' out this fall with a 1,000-watt amusement park ride of a play that is modern, bold, theatrical and supremely entertaining".

Performances are October 9 - November 2, Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30pm, and Sundays at 2:30pm. Tickets are $30. Tickets for ages 21 and under are $21.

2nd Story Theatre is located at 28 Market Street, Warren, Rhode Island. For tickets visit the box office, call 401-247-4200, or buy online at www.2ndStoryTheatre.com.
