| Event Name | Organization | Dates | City | | End Days Directed by Sara GotcherPresented by Center of Excellence for the Creative Arts at Austin Peay State University February 22-February 26, 2012 Sixteen-year-old Rachel Stein is having a bad year. Her father hasn’t changed out of his pajamas since 9/11. Her mother has begun a close, personal relationship with Jesus. Her new neighbor, a 16-year-old Elvis impersonator, has fallen for her hard. And, the Apocalypse is coming Wednesday. Her only hope is that Stephen Hawking will save them all. End Days is truly a “rapturously” funny and serious play.
