Southern Arkansas University Theatre is set to perform “Out of Order” at Harton Theatre starting at 7 p.m. nightly from February 18-20, and at 2 p.m. on February 21.
Tickets can be purchased at www.showtix4u.com or by calling SAU Theatre at (870) 235-4291. Prices are $10 for an adult/general admission ticket and $5 for children 12 and under. The performance on Saturday, Febraury 20, will be followed by an actor talk-back.
The show is an all-comedy British farce, and is rated PG-13.
As with many other Ray Cooney plays, it features a lead actor (a junior UK minister) who has to lie his way out of an embarrassing situation (a planned adultery with a secretary). He gets the help of an innocent side-kick (the minister’s personal private secretary), who gets more and more embroiled in the increasingly tangled tale improvised by the lead character as events unfold. The action takes place in a suite in a posh London hotel and revolves around accidents caused by a defective sash window. The show will have a 15-minute intermission.
