The Good Person of Szchewan

Rated 4.0

The story of a hooker with a heart of gold is pure Bertolt Brecht experimental “epic theater,” with inclusion of the audience, quirky musical numbers and conceptual acting. It’s an impressive production, with innovative performances, imaginative staging and creative costumes, as well as a large cast, mostly students. It’s a gutsy show for a college theater program that shows off the new state-of-the-art theater and emerging talents—and pays off nicely for the audience. Th 11/10 2pm; F, Sa 8pm; Su 2pm. Through 11/13. $10-$15. Falcon’s Eye Theatre at the Three Stages at Folsom Lake College, 10 College Pkwy. in Folsom; (916) 608-6888. www.threestages.net.
