True Life Stories: Love Is (Or Is Not)

Rated 4.0

Director Frank Condon’s project involves autobiography, as five performers present scenes from their lives, organized as a script. Love and desire are the theme, from giddy first meetings to dark, abusive episodes. Though “on book,” the persuasive honesty of the diverse cast makes this an absorbing hourlong experience. Th 2pm; F, Sa 7:30pm; Su 2pm. Through 5/8. $5-$8. Visual and Performing Arts Center at Cosumnes River College, 8401 Center Pkwy.; (916) 691-7364.
