Join the Theatre &amp; Dance Department for an evening of existential drama with Jean-Paul Sartre's "No Exit," a seminal play that delves into the human psyche and the nature of hell. Set in a single, unadorned room, the story follows three characters—Garcin, Inez, and Estelle—who are mysteriously trapped together for eternity. As the tension mounts, their interactions reveal dark secrets and psychological torment, encapsulating Sartre's famous assertion that "hell is other people." This powerful play challenges audiences to confront uncomfortable truths about self-deception, freedom, and the consequences of our actions. Don't miss this gripping exploration of human nature and existential dread. Written by: Jean-Paul SartreStudent Directed by: Riley HerbertAdmission: $10 for the public, and Cal Lutheran students, faculty, and staff enjoy complimentary entry. Donations are also gratefully accepted and contribute to the continued excellence of our Theatre Arts program. No Exit offers a timeless examination of the consequences of our actions and the ways in which we confront or evade responsibility. The play addresses serious themes, including suicide, sexual content, infanticide, sexism, violence, and torture. We encourage attendees to consider their own well-being when engaging with these challenging topics. We are sold out of General Admission for Saturday and Sunday! If you still need a paid ticket for those shows, reserve a free Student/Faculty ticket, and use the “Donation” option to pay $10 for each GA ticket you need.
