‘NEVER RUNS SMOOTH’ ON STAGE AT ABAC NOVEMBER 9 – 11

TIFTON- “Never Runs Smooth”, Abraham Baldwin College’s fall theater production, will be held on Nov. 9-11 in Conger Hall, Room 319. The play is directed by Dr. John Galyean, Associate Professor of Humanities; and ABAC alumnus Kati Wheeler.

Doors will open at 7:30 p.m., and curtain time is 8 p.m. General admission for the play is $5. ABAC faculty, staff, and students get in free.

“Never Runs Smooth” is about a group of people who are members of SPATS (The Society to Promote All Things Shakespeare). The theme of the group meeting and of the play is love, with the couples in the group having spats of their own that are reflected in the scenes they stage. Galyean said this play within a play proves that all you need is love.
