Tempe Center for the arts opens new show

Stray Cat Theatre presents Eureka Day, Jonathan Spector’s sharply funny and provocative Tony-winning comedy about community, conviction, and what happens when good intentions collide.

The Eureka Day School in Berkeley, California, is a bastion of progressive ideals: representation, acceptance, social justice. But when a mumps outbreak threatens the Eureka community, facts become subjective and every solution divisive, leaving the school’s leadership to confront the central question of our time: How do you build consensus when no one can agree on truth?

EUREKA DAY contains strong language, sexual references, depictions of racism, discussions of child mortality and references to addiction. Recommended for 13+.

With razor-sharp dialogue and plenty of uncomfortable laughs, Eureka Day examines the fault lines that can turn a close-knit community against itself. 

The show will run at Tempe Center for the Arts from Oct. 9-17 on weekends.
