From the opening scene of “Failure: A Love Story,” the audience learns the three main characters all die. However, Bluffton University’s fall play--about three sisters and the man who falls in love with each one--has plenty of wit as well.
“I wasn’t ready for a complete comedy. I wanted a play that could tap into feelings of loss, considering everything that has happened in the last couple of years,” said Dr. Melissa Friesen, professor of theatre and director of the show. “There is a lot of humor in this play, but there is also a healthy balance of dramatic moments.”
At 2 p.m. on Sunday, November 7, Alloway Environmental Testing CEO John Hoffman will present a program on his first-hand experience of Water for People, a project that helps provide clean drinking water in underdeveloped countries like Malawi.
The program will take place in St. John’s United Church of Christ, 223 W. College Avenue. Coffee and dessert will be served. Social distancing will be observed and masks are required. Please register at blufftonstjohns.com/events.
