The Student Theatrical Experience Fund, a partnership with the Student Government Association and Theatre Wesleyan established in 2016, will be available to the students for the upcoming production of Letters From The Library by Mercedes Kuhn. The fund helps TXWES students see Theatre Wesleyan shows for free.
The synopsis of the world premiere play is as follows: In rural Kentucky, at the height of the Great Depression, Harriet’s husband falls ill and loses his job, leaving them with very few options. To keep their spirits up, Harriet takes advantage of the Packhorse Library Project and meets Leslie, a traveling librarian who brightens up Harriet’s darkening world. This production is recommended for mature audiences and contains mild adult themes.
Performances of Letters From The Library will be held at the Thad Smotherman Theatre/Law Sone Fine Arts building:
- Wednesday, February 19 at 7:30 pm
- Thursday, February 20 at 7:30 pm
