Experience a profound and deeply intimate journey through the ordinary moments that make up an extraordinary life. Thornton Wilder's Pulitzer Prize-winning masterpiece, set in small town Grover’s Corners, is brought to life by students, staff, and faculty. The classic drama asks us to truly see and appreciate the fleeting beauty of "everyday life."
Under the visionary direction of CSN Theatre Faculty member, Adrienne Showker, this staging transcends traditional theatre. Showker explores non-traditional and metatheatrical performance devices, deliberately breaking the "fourth wall" and employing stark, unconventional techniques that draw attention to the act of performance itself. This raw approach promises to create a powerful bond between the performers and the audience, resulting in a truly unforgettable viewing experience that refreshes a timeless classic.
There's a matinee performance on November 16th at 4 p.m.
Indulge in an evening of enchantment, glamour, and sizzling entertainment as "A Night Of..." makes its way to the Las Vegas Arts District.

General Admission and VIP seating available. It's the second Thursday of every month.

TSTMRKT (pronounced “Test Market”) is a performance art sketch comedy amalgamation held together with film loops, cut-n-paste theatre, and a relentless soundtrack. There is no “sound person” running the effects. It’s just a “start” button and a bag of nerves.
Once the actor hits “start” on the playback, the film collages and sound effects are triggered only by time. It’s the actor’s task to keep track of each second that passes, each syllable that is uttered, and each movement created in space. If anything is off, the entire thing falls apart. It’s a theatrical tightrope. You’ve never seen anything like it.
Hailing from Las Vegas, TSTMRKT has performed at the prestigious San Francisco Sketchfest, The Cleveland Ingenuity Festival, The Dallas Comedy Festival, The Hollywood Fringe Festival, and the Portland Sketch Comedy Festival.

If you’re looking for a stage production that’s even more reflective of the current times, A Public Fit has you covered with What the Constitution Means to Me, an exploration of the widely interpreted U.S. document through the lens of a former high school debater. Too soon, you say? Then note that Heidi Schreck’s historically sweeping play takes the edge off a touchy subject with humor and heart. Times vary, through Nov. 23.
