Summer theater at WCU

Looking for something to do on these long summer days? West Chester University has a large theater program going on with shows open to the public.

The Summer Performing Arts Project of WCU is starting its second annual season of summer theater. The first production will be "Members Only," by Fabrice Roger-Lacan.
Michael Durkin, program coordinator, described the play as "an intimate, fast-moving, cruel and tender comedy about friendship, obsession and the absurdity of desire."

In addition, the program is hosting a guest artist to direct the play. Tom Reing, an artistic director of Inis Nua Theater Company, which produces and develops plays from Ireland, Scotland and Great Britain, will be the director.

The production opens on June 22 and will run until June 24, then from June 27 to June 30. It will be put on at the E.O. Bull Center's main stage.
