Or is she just the enemy of the people? *“Highly thought-provoking (and) …a chilling modern-day version.” *(Kerry Klawson, Akron Beacon Journal) *“(Hunter’s) adaptation of 'An Enemy of the People' … feels as timely as ever.”*(Cleveland Scene Magazine, Christine Howey) Opening February 7th and running through February 23rd, 2024. *Marinello Little Theatre :: DJ Lombardo Student Center *on the campus of* John Carroll University. * 1 John Carroll Blvd. :: University Heights, OH 44118 **Opening Night Reception (2/7) Catered by The Little Grapevine!!
