Third

At an elite New England college, Professor Laurie Jameson accuses her student, Woodson Bull III, or “Third,” of plagiarism. A jock from a red state, Third is not the typical student for Laurie’s feminist lectures on demasculinizing Western literature. But is Laurie’s feud really with Third, or with the increasingly unstable world she finds herself occupying as she enters her own third act? The last play completed by the late Tony and Pulitzer winner Wendy Wasserstein, Third asks the audience to “acknowledge their fears, their limitations and the possibility that they might be wrong on subjects they were once sure about” (New York Times). NOTE: There are no performances the weekend of Labor Day.
