WRITTEN BYNOEL COWARDDIRECTED BYGEORGE JUDY

Filled with the wit and sophistication that are Coward hallmarks, this 1930s hit was banned in Britain for years after its American premiere as it redefined the “modern woman” and the notion of the traditional “family unit.” Like Swine Palace’s 2009 production of THE ROYAL FAMILY, DESIGN FOR LIVING is an exploration of the cult of celebrity and the role of the artist in society. SINGLE TICKET PRICES

Adult................................ $18.00Senior/Faculty/Staff...... $15.00Student............................ $12.00

TRANSLATED & ADAPTED BY FREYDA THOMAS

DIRECTED BYRICHARD HOLDEN

Theatre’s most devilish hypocrite comes to Baton Rouge in this hit modern adaptation of Moliere’s classic comedy. Tartuffe is now a shamed televangelist who uses his telegenic charms to cavort and scam a Louisiana family. Fast-paced and hilarious, this show is not to be missed.

WRITTEN BYWILLIAM SHAKESPEAREDIRECTED BYDEB ALLEY

Bursting with remarkable language, sensuality and surprising humor, Shakespeare’s KING LEAR is arguably the greatest tragedy in the English language and certainly one of the most remarkable investigations of family relationships in all of literature. Swine Palace is thrilled to have acclaimed director Deb Alley from the Illinois Shakespeare Festival lead a cast that includes Interim Artistic Director George Judy in the title role.

WRITTEN BYADAM RAPPDIRECTED BYJOANNA BATTLES

Swine Palace presents the regional premiere of this thought-provoking play from acclaimed contemporary playwright Adam Rapp. THE METAL CHILDREN follows the controversy created in a small town when a young adult novel ignites heated emotions over abortion, religious beliefs and modern feminism. The volcanic collision between the artist and his critics erupts with surprising and terrifying consequences which offer no easy answers for anyone, including the audience.

WRITTEN BYSTEPHEN ADLEY GUIRGISDIRECTED BYFEMI EUBA

When a dead nun’s body vanishes during her wake, an absurd crime becomes the door to a life full of mysteries. The brilliant playwright Stephen Adley Guirgis (JESUS HOPPED THE A TRAIN, THE LAST DAYS OF JUDAS ISCARIOT) once again weaves mystery and humor together to explore the most shadowy areas of the human soul.

APR 27—MAY 8, 2011 PRESENTED BY LSU THEATRE PERFORMANCES AT THE STUDIO THEATRE

WRITTEN & PERFORMED BYJOY VANDERVORT-COBBDIRECTED BYMAIDA LIBKIN

You’ve seen her work as a director at Swine Palace (KING HEDLEY II, FENCES and MA’ RAINEY’S BLACK BOTTOM). Now see her inspirational work as a performer in her stunning one-woman show. Joy Vandervort-Cobb takes us on the journey of her life in this beautiful, humorous exploration about acceptance and forgiveness, told with song and slapstick, and filled with laughter.
