SPINNING INTO BUTTER: February-March 2014

Mary May, Giovanni Alva

It’s an ordinary autumn day at Belmont College. The Dean of Students thinks she’s doing a good deed: matching a promising student with a “minority” scholarship.

But when a black student reports a racial hate note pinned to his dormitory room door, everything starts to spin out of control.

 Bold, witty, incisive and provocative: Spinning Into Butter, the prize-winning play by Rebecca Gilman, presented by HSU Theatre and directed by Cassandra Hesseltine. Thursdays through Saturdays, February 27-March 1, March 6-8 at 7:30 p.m., with a 2 p.m. matinee on Sunday March 9 in Gist Hall Theatre on the HSU campus in Arcata. 

 Tickets are $10, $8 seniors/students, with a limited number of free seats for HSU students at each performance, from the HSU Ticket Office (826-3928) or at the door.
