Saint Louis University Theatre Presents Vinegar Tom

Saint Louis University Theatre’s last play of the season is Vinegar Tom, written by Caryl Churchill. Here’s what the theatre says:

Esteemed British playwright Caryl Churchill hauntingly examines poverty, gender, and power through the lens of 17th century witchcraft trials in England. Vinegar Tom is a witch tale with no witches. This parable of oppression and scapegoats challenges us to think about the role of modern-day women and our responsibility for the injustice that still exists in today’s world.

Showtimes are May 4, 5 at 8 PM and May 6 at 2 PM. Saint Louis University Theatre is located in Xavier Hall. Tickets are $10 for adults, $9 for senior citizens and SLU faculty and staff, and $7 for all students. For more information, call the theatre at (314) 977-3327.
