Ghostlight Theatre Club invites you to the Opening Night performance of their third production, The Shape of Things by Neil LeBute. Directed by Ghostlight Executive Director Emily Etherton, the cast is made up of local favorites David Mays, Victoria Stahl, Helen Hoepfner, and Corey Whaley.
 
How far would you go for love? For art? What concessions would you make? What price would you be willing to pay? Such are the painful questions explored by Neil LaBute in his play, The Shape of Things, a modern day telling of the fall of man. After a chance meeting in a museum, Evelyn, a sexy, aggressive artist, and Adam, a shy, insecure student, become embroiled in an intense affair. Before long, it veers into the kind of dangerous, seductive territory that LaBute does best, as Adam, under Evelyn's steady influence, goes to unimaginable lengths to improve his appearance and character. Only in the final and shocking exhibition, which challenges our most deeply entrenched ideas about art and love, does Evelyn reveal her true intentions.
