About the play: An Inspector Calls is an effective presentation of the strange twists that take place in human beings when their consciences are affected. In an English industrial city in 1912, a young girl commits suicide and an eminently respectable British family is subjected to a routine inquiry in connection with the death. A police inspector calls to interrogate the family, and during the course of his questioning all members of the group are implicated lightly or deeply in the girl's undoing. The family, closely knit and friendly at the beginning of the evening, is shown up as selfish, self-centered or cowardly, its good humor turning to acid, and good fellowship to dislike, before the evening is over.

Performance dates are September 19 thru October 5, 2008.
