Theatre/Converse Presents Humorous Voyage into Psyche of Modern American Male

As part of its Main Stage Series, Theatre/Converse will present  “Some Girl(s)”, the latest from contemporary American playwright Neil LaBute, Oct. 26-28, Oct. 31 and Nov. 1-3. in Hazel B. Abbott Theatre which is on the second floor of Wilson Hall on the Converse College campus.  Curtain times are 8 p.m. each evening except for the Sunday Oct. 28 performance which begins at 2 p.m. The production is recommended for mature audiences. Admission is $8 for adults; $4 for students and seniors. For reservation and ticket information, contact the Theatre/Converse ticket office at (864) 596-9068.

Premiered in New York in 2006, “Some Girl(s)” tells the story of Guy, a young writer faced with his impending marriage who embarks on a trek though five hotel rooms in five cities in order to visit five of his ex-girlfriends with whom he has not had contact for years. Ostensibly, his travels are meant to redress the circumstances that caused each of these relationships to break up.  Much more than a voyage of atonement, however, this is a humorous, yet intensely serious expedition into the psyche of the modern American male and the spirit in each one of us.
