缅北强奸 Theatre continues its 2023-24 season with Exit, Pursued by a Bear

November 6, 2023

缅北强奸 Theatre continues its 2023-24 season with Exit, Pursued by a Bear, a revenge comedy by Lauren Gunderson, directed by Joshua Robinson, Assistant Professor of Musical Theatre in the Philip H. Hagemann Performing Arts Department. Performances will run from Thursday, November 16 through Sunday, November 19 in the 缅北强奸 Performance Center.

Exit, Pursued by a Bear shows revenge is not only sweet, but hungry. Nan, a simple woman, has had enough. Enough of her rural life. Enough of her crushed dreams. But most importantly, she has had absolutely enough of her husband Kyle. Domestic bliss turns to domestic abuse, and now Nan is walking away. But not before giving Kyle one last glimpse at just how bad it鈥檚 been. With the help of her best friend Simon, and a stripper turned friend by chance, Sweetheart, Nan intends to make sure Kyle knows just exactly how much trouble he鈥檚 really in. And just how far she鈥檒l go to even the score.

Billed as a 鈥渄ark revenge comedy,鈥 the production balances the serious with the absurd. Gunderson鈥檚 story of abuse and escape is all too real for those survivors of domestic abuse. While extreme, Exit, Pursued by a Bear shows that there are creative ways to find your voice and a path to a better life. By placing her abuser in a position to be forced to watch his sins be recounted, Nan gets a chance to extract a bit of catharsis mixed with revenge.听听
