Performances will take place on April 24, April 25, May 1, and May 2 at 7:00 PM at the First Presbyterian Church of Yellow Springs. Doors open at 6:30 PM, and tickets are available for $15 at the door.
The evening features three ten-minute plays—“April is No Fool,” “I'm Friggin Retired,” & “Please Pull Through”—followed by the featured one-act play, “The Stands.” Eric Thomas is a local writer based in the Cincinnati area.
