Upcoming: The Pain and the Itch by Bruce Norris, Capital T Theatre, October 25 - November 17
The Pain and the Itch
by Bruce Norris
Directed by Mark Pickell
October 25 – November 17
Thursdays-Saturdays at 8 p.m.
Worst. Thanksgiving. Ever.
Clay and Kelly share a perfect suburban house with two perfect daughters and have a perfect life. That is until Clay’s mother, Carol, and his brother Cash, with his young Eastern European girlfriend come to have Thanksgiving dinner together.
When a mysterious intruder disrupts Thanksgiving dinner, the gloves come off and an already nervous situation takes a turbulent turn for the worse. Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Bruce Norris’ wickedly funny comedy of desire, deceit and family values is guaranteed to get under your skin.
Capital T is proud to present Pulitzer Prize Winning Playwright Bruce Norris’ scathing satire directed by 2 time Austin Critics Table Award Winning Director Mark Pickell (Killer Joe, Hunter Gatherers). The all star cast includes Austin favorites Kenneth Wayne Bradley (Killer Joe), Lana Dietrich, Liz Fisher (Hunter Gatherers), Indigo Rael (Exit Pursued by a Bear), and Ben Wolfe (I Heart Walmart).

UT Lab Theatre
presents
The Pain and the Itch
by Bruce Norris
April 27 - 30, 8 p.m., May 1, 2 p.m.
Free admission - Performance contains mature content.
Lab Theatre (LTH), University of Texas, located between the Jackson Geological Sciences Building (JGB) and the F. Loren Winship Drama Building (WIN) near 24th and San Jacinto. Parking available in the San Jacinto Garage on San Jacinto near Dean Keeton.
With a young daughter in serious need of attention and a ravenous creature possibly prowling the upstairs bedrooms, an average Thanksgiving for one privileged family unravels into an exposé of lies, disastrous choices, and selfish motives, which ultimately leads to a disaster that befalls an immigrant African taxi driver. The Pain and the Itch is a scathing satire of the politics of class and race, a controversial, painfully human examination of denial and its consequences.
