The Balcony Scene

​Oct. 4-6, 2018 • 8:00 p.m.
FOR MATURE AUDIENCES AS PART OF OUR "AFTER DARK" SERIES
Alvin has had it. He sees civilization crumbling around him and wants no part of it. The only place he feels safe is inside his Chicago high rise apartment, so that's where he stays until Karen moves in next door. She is a die hard optimist with a high pressure job and a relentless ex boyfriend who won't take no for an answer. Alvin and Karen meet on their adjoining balconies and form a friendship that sets their two worlds on a collision course.

Saturday
After the final showing of Pittsburg Community Theatre’s production, “The Balcony Scene,” on Saturday, director Joey Pogue has something out-of-the-ordinary planned: a panel discussion and Q&A with experts from Pittsburg State University and the community.
Professor Browyn Conrad, who is president of the PSU Women’s Studies Council, associate professor Harriet Bachner, who is a member of the council, Stephanie Spitz, PSU’s campus victim advocate, and Jim Orwig, local counselor, will comprise the panel.
“The theme of the show is relationships and domestic violence, so we’ll open up the floor to a discussion and use this as a teaching tool,” said Pogue, a professor in the Department of Communication who specializes in gender communication.
