<i>Buried Child</i><o:p></o:p></span></b></p>
<p class="NoParagraphStyle"><b><o:p> </o:p></b></p>
<p class="NoParagraphStyle">Kent State University at Stark will kick off their first theatrical event of the 2012-13 season with
<b><i>Buried Child</i></b> by Sam Shepard on November 2, 3, 9 and 10 at 8 p.m. and on November 4 and 11 at 2:30 p.m. in the Kent State Stark Theatre, 6000 Frank Avenue NW in Jackson Township. American Sign Language interpretation will be provided for the performance
on November 11 at 2:30 p.m. Opening night is Scholarship Night with proceeds benefitting students in Kent State Stark theatre and music programs.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="NoParagraphStyle"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="NoParagraphStyle">Shepard’s Pulitzer Prize-winning drama takes a macabre look at the disintegration of the American dream. Mystery and humor combine in the Midwestern home of a dysfunctional family with a very dark secret that plunges them into bizarre
degeneration and finally, toward hope. <b><i>For mature audiences only.<o:p></o:p></i></b></p>
<p class="NoParagraphStyle"><i><o:p> </o:p></i></p>
<p class="NoParagraphStyle">Ticket prices are $10 for adults and $7 for non-Kent State students, children under 17 and senior citizens. All Kent State students are admitted free of charge with current student ID. Reserve tickets online at
<a href="http://www.stark.kent.edu/theatre">www.stark.kent.edu/theatre</a> or call the Kent State Stark Theatre Box Office at 330-244-3348, Mondays through Fridays from 1 to 5 p.m.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="NoParagraphStyle"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="NoParagraphStyle">Directing <i>Buried Child</i> is Kent State Stark Assistant Professor of Theatre and Theatre Director Brian Newberg. Louis Williams is the scenic and lighting designer, Susan Blurton is the costume designer and Ron Jarvis is the
sound designer.<o:p></o:p></p>
