Jumping right into the Fall semester with a bang, Kean has already announced a full season of plays for students, staff and anyone else to enjoy. With a full line up we have; Scab by Gino Diiorio, and Certain Aspects of Conflict in the Negro Family by Tylie Shider. Let’s dive right in and find out the details on when these plays will be available to the public. 

Starting in September from the 8th to the 25th, is Scab. As described on the Premiere Stages website, Scab is about "Gilda, a middle-aged woman, who has to train Eduardo, a young Mexican man, on how to be a shop foreman after her factory plant moves to Mexico. Over the course of the week, this unlikely pair learn a lot about one another, discovering that their assumptions regarding personal expectations and cultural differences are not always correct."

Opening night will be this Friday, September 9th at 9 p.m. in the Bauer Boucher Theatre Center. The show will go on for two weeks and will have showings at 8 p.m. on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. Scab will also have shows at 3 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday. Tickets range from $15-$75;
