Did you know that UPenn's Mask and Wig is one of the oldest musical-comedy, student-theatre groups in the country? They have been performing since 1889! Their spring production, The Sword and the Stoner, is running from January 26th – April 5th at their Clubhouse in Center City:

Our story begins once upon a time, in a magical medieval kingdom named Prussia, home of Alex Longsword the Third and a Half: The King of Prussia. After being diagnosed with an unknown and incurable illness, Alex sets off on a quest to slay a dragon and become a legend. He is accompanied by Sigmund, a geriatric knight pulled out of retirement for one last quest, and Ashtray, a talking horse who would rather be anywhere else. On their journey, our heroes confront evil wizards, negotiate safe passage through the realm of Snow White’s dwarves, and claim a Sword in a Stone. Will Alex slay the dragon? Is incest really that bad? Is “Bridge Troll” an economically viable job?

CW: PG-13 for occasional strong language, light sexual content, and fake violence.

We are going this Saturday, January 27th at 7:30 pm! We will be leaving from KCECH's reception lobby at 6:40 pm sharp.

If you would like to come along, please email Lidia ASAP (lleon@upenn.edu) and bring $5 to the House Office (EH112) by Thursday 01/25 by 4:00 pm. (Tickets are $15, but KCECH can partially subsidize most of the cost 😉). If for any reason you're unable to make the payment, let Jessica know, and we can work it out. Please, RSVP only if you are able to commit, as tickets are non-refundable!

We hope you'll join us!
