Tomas KubinekTomas Kubinek: Certified Lunatic and Master of the Impossible
Friday, October 11, 2013 | 7:00 pm | Wright Auditorium

A collision of theatre and music hall, this exuberant one-man show is equal parts comic brilliance, virtuosic vaudeville and irresistible charm. Balancing the absurd and the profound, his outrageous antics may defy description, but he’ll make you laugh ‘til you cry as he takes you under his hypnotic spell. The performance is suitable for adults with children over five. The focused atmosphere of the show makes it inadvisable for infants and toddlers. This performance runs 90 minutes without an intermission.

ECU Storybook Theatre in A Christmas Carol
November 15 | 7:00 pm | Wright Auditorium

Bah! Humbug! Scrooge didn’t like people. He liked money--collecting it, not spending it. He didn’t like friends. Or visitors. He especially didn’t care for three otherworldly visitors--the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future--but they warmed his heart and changed him into a man who cares about people and friends and the future.

ECU Storybook Theatre faithfully presents John Jakes’ adaptation of Charles Dickens’ classic tale.
