PALACE THEATRE EVENT UPDATES
Texas State University, San Marcos
presents the play
HURRICANE SEASON
When a beloved World War I Veteran is forced to confront his son in
law, a Viet Nam veteran, about the horrors witnessed in combat he is
reminded of his own reoccurring nightmares. Coming face to face with
their own terrors and each other, the two men must find common ground
before irreparable damage is done to those they love most.
The stage play is a gripping story of grief, compassion, and finding
a way to move on. Set in the Rio Grande Valley in 1970, it
explores Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, before its official
diagnosis, and its effects on a multi-cultural family infected by war
and their struggle to love through their grief.
This play is for mature audiences and has some explicit language.

HAIRSPRAY
This stage production delighted audiences by sweeping them away to 1960's Baltimore, where the 50's are out -- and change is in the air! Loveable plus-size heroine, Tracy Turnblad, has a passion for dancing, and wins a spot on the local TV dance program, "The Corny Collins Show." Overnight she finds herself transformed from outsider to teen celebrity. Can a larger-than-life adolescent manage to vanquish the program's reigning princess, integrate the television show, and find true love (singing and dancing all the while, of course!) without mussing her hair?
July 13, 2012 - August 5, 2012

Sunday at 2:30pm CT
Admission $12
