Apocalypse Road Trip

By Wren Aubrey Latham

Directed by Mason Luellen

October 20-25 at 7:30 p.m.  | Art and Journalism Building, Room 225

When the world ends, Mitchy and Quinn hit the road in a battered 2011 Jeep Wrangler they call ‘The Big Lebowski.’ With humor, heart, and plenty of detours, their journey through a ruined landscape becomes a search for meaning, connection, and a reason to keep going—even at the end of everything.

 

The Proposal

By Anton Chekhov, Julius West

Directed by Tyler Bennett

October 20-25 at 7:30 p.m. | Art and Journalism Building, Room 225

A marriage proposal goes wildly off the rails when a nervous young farmer and his intended bride spiral into a series of ridiculous arguments over land, pride, and family honor. Tempers flare, nerves fray, and the engagement teeters—yet somehow, love (or stubbornness) wins out. Fast, sharp, and delightfully absurd, The Proposal is a comic classic about how romance and conflict often arrive hand in hand.
