"A Bright Room Called Day"

« Return to Calendar

Based on a play written by Bertolt Brecht in 1938, Tony Kushner’s A Bright Room Called Day looks over our shoulders and behind ourselves. A German middle aged actress and her friends in the early 1930s fearfully witness the fall of the socialist Weimar Republic and the rise of Adolph Hitler. A subplot tells the story of Zillah, a 1990s New Yorker who believes that Ronald Reagan is becoming too much like Hitler.

Showtimes: 7:30pm weeknights & Saturdays, 2PM ON SUNDAYS.

The show is located at the Stevens Building, off of Carroll Drive at NIU in DeKalb. Tickets are $16 adults, $13 seniors, $8 students. For more information, please visit http://niu.edu/theatre/.
