University Theatre and Center for Peace & Spirituality Present "A Night in November" This Evening
A special single-night performance of A Night in November will take place at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 18 in the Tom Miles Theatre (Warner Hall - 2115 Pacific Ave.) on Pacific University's Forest Grove Campus. Admission is free.
Written by Marie Jones, A Night in November is the story of Kenneth McCallister, a rather ordinary middle class Protestant bureaucrat in Belfast. Sitting in the stands during a qualifying soccer match between the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland in Belfast in November 1993, Kenneth finds himself repelled by his brethren’s race hatred. When the Republic side wins, he decides to risk public disgrace and ostracism and travel to the World Cup in New York with Irish (Republic) fans.
This revival of the Drammy Award winning show is directed by Gemma Whelan.
