About This Event

Oakland University's School of Music, Theatre and Dance presents Branden Jacobs-Jenkins' acclaimed play, a provocative examination of office politics and tragedy.

What to Expect

• 1.You'll be in Varner Hall campus theatre watching Branden Jacobs-Jenkins' provocative play unfold on stage. Expect sharp dialogue, tense office politics, and moments that lean into tragedy.
• 2.The crowd tends to be a mix of students and community members, and solo attendees fit right in; you won't be forced into small talk, but it's easy to strike up a quick conversation if you want.
• 3.Plan your snacks and drinks in advance because campus theatres usually don't offer refreshments inside; grab a coffee at a campus cafe before you go.
• 4.Parking around Varner Hall can fill up, so allow extra time for finding a spot and for ticketing; arrive 15-20 minutes early if you can.
• 5.If you are new to this kind of theatre, skim the program notes and be prepared for heavy topics; wear casual clothes and bring a light jacket because theatres can get chilly.
