The final production from the Augustana Theatre showcases a combination of stories that all fall under one theme: the timing of communication.

“All in the Timing” is a collection of short plays with six distinct stories. Though each story represents a different existential topic, they all intertwine wit and humor to create a collectively thought-provoking production.

The play includes six stories: “Sure Thing”; “Words, Words, Words”; “The Universal Language”; “Philip Glass Buys a Loaf of Bread”; “The Philadelphia”; and “Variations on the Death of Leon Trotsky.”

“All in the Timing” will run from Wednesday, May 3 to Saturday, May 6 at the Edith Mortenson Center.
