Chance Theater presents: Tigers Be Still
May 3 - June 2

This deliciously dark comedy centers around the infinitely-(trying-to-be-) optimistic Sherry Wickman. Despite having to move back in with her family after college, things take a turn for the better when she’s hired as an art teacher. Now, if only her mother would come downstairs, her sister would stop watching Top Gun from the couch, her first patient would do one assignment, her boss would leave his gun at home, and someone would catch the actual tiger that escaped from the local zoo, everything would be just perfect!

Recommendation: Ages 13 and up. Contains adult language.

20% off tickets. Limited availability. Use code "STRIPE20"

Chance Theater @ Bette Aitken Theater Arts Center
