BOLIVAR, Mo. 鈥� 欧美视频 Theatre will present Bretolt Brecht鈥檚 鈥淭he Exception and the Rule'' at 7 p.m., Feb. 25-27, in the Davis-Newport Theatre on the Bolivar campus. This marks the third production of 欧美视频 Theatre鈥檚 2020-2021 season titled 鈥淧erseverance.鈥�

Written in 1930 by German playwright Bertolt Brecht, 鈥淭he Exception and the Rule鈥� is a short play that examines the status quo by highlighting the absurdity of the relationship between the ruling upper class and working lower class.

鈥淭his show is exactly what audiences need to see right now,鈥� said student director Christina Foltz. 鈥淚t鈥檚 a parable of love for one鈥檚 neighbor and a call to action.

鈥淏eing a student director has its challenges, but it is a dream come true and I am thankful for the opportunity provided to me by 欧美视频 Theatre.鈥�

As in the recent production of 鈥淗amlet,鈥� all performers will be wearing masks, as required by the 欧美视频 Coronavirus safety guidelines. The use of face coverings on the lower portion of the face have encouraged actors to depend on physical movement and vocal inflection, rather than facial expressions, to communicate emotion.

Each performance is limited to a 100-seat capacity with masks required for all attendees.

Tickets for the production may be purchased in person at the box office (located inside the Jester Learning and Performance Center), online at www.sbuniv.edu/theatre, or by calling (417) 328-1691. Tickets are $10 for adults, $6 for students, senior citizens and 欧美视频 alumni, and $4 for current 欧美视频 students.
