KEARNEY – The University Theatre at Kearney presents “The Ghost Sonata” Wednesday through Sunday (Feb. 20-24) at the University of Nebraska at Kearney.
“The Ghost Sonata” relates the adventures of a young student who idealizes the lives of the residents of an opulent apartment building. He makes the acquaintance of a mysterious man who helps him find his way into the building, only to discover it is a nest of betrayal, deceit and misery. The student soon learns that the house he admired so much from afar is actually a form of hell, and in order to achieve salvation, all of its residents, even the innocent, must suffer.
When: 7:30 p.m., Wednesday through Sunday (Feb. 20-24)
Where: Miriam Drake Theatre
Cost: Tickets are $10 for adults; $8 for non-UNK students, seniors and UNK faculty/staff; $7 per person for groups of 10 or more, and free for UNK students with a valid ID. For tickets, contact the UNK Box Office at 308.865.8417 or boxoffice@unk.edu.
