Slapstick comedy this weekend at Freed Center
The Freed Center at Ohio Northern University presents “Loot,” by Joe Orton, in three 7:30 p.m. performances, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, Feb. 20-22 and 2 p.m., Sunday, Feb. 23, in the Stambaugh Studio Theatre.
The performance is described this way:
“Uproarious slapstick meets dubious morals as two young friends stash the proceeds of a bank robbery in an occupied coffin in an attempt to hide their spoils from the attentions of a psychopathic policeman, a gold-digging nurse and a grieving widower.
Winner of London’s Evening Standard Best Play Award, Joe Orton’s Loot is a pitch-black, dizzying farce that is sure to hit the spot. Warning: Loot’s crazy antics may not be suitable for the young or weak of heart.”
Tickets are:
$20 – Adults
$10 – Seniors
$5 – Students/Children
