What do beach blanket bingo parties and Greek mythology have in common?Wipeout, a play by post-modernist Jeffrey M. Jones, uses cross-gendering to examine both of these worlds and to discover the true meanings of identity, fame, love and death. A part of Jones' trilogy of plays, "A History of Western Philosophy," Wipeout brings to life philosophical issues in an entertaining and moving way. A core ensemble cast of six brings to life three characters exploring both their masculine and feminine sides.
Tickets for Wipeout are $5 General, $3 Students and Senior Citizens. All seating is general admission. Reservations are suggested as seating is limited. For reservations or more information, call Anne Riffle in the Department of Theatre and Dance at (315) 859-4057.
