Location Information: The MCC Art Gallery can be found behind the AC building near the MCC Theatre. Complimentary parking for events is conveniently provided in the southeast lots of campus.

About the Production: Marlene has been promoted to managing director of a London employment agency and is celebrating. The symbolic luncheon is attended by women in legend or history who offer perspective on maternity and ambition. In a time warp, these ladies are also her co-workers, clients, and relatives. Marlene, like her famous guests, has had to pay a price to ascend from proletarian roots to the executive suite: she has become figuratively speaking, a male oppressor, and coaches female clients on adopting odious male traits. Marlene has also abandoned her illegitimate and dull - witted daughter. Her emotional and sexual life has become as barren as Lady Macbeth's.

*Rating for this production equivalent of PG 13

Location Information: The MCC Theatre is located on the south side of the Southern & Dobson campus just east of Dobson Avenue. Parking is free.
