TEACHERS! There are school matinees on January 19 & 20. Call (413) 788-7646 for ticket prices and information! Runt of the Litter looks at what happens to two brothers in a family of over-achievers: when their parents assure their oldest son he is destined for football superstardom, while their youngest son appears too small to compete, a line in the family sand is drawn that colors the rest of their lives. Runt of the Litter is, in fact, a semiautobiographical account of Bo Eason's life and career as a safety for the Houston Oilers in the 1980s. A superb and substantive one-man show written and performed by Eason, this show has an across-the-board appeal for everyone, from sports enthusiasts to hardcore theater lovers. visit website co sponsored by Mercy Medical Center Weekend Tickets: $39.50 & $35, Weekday Tickets: $36 & $30 Comedian Bobby Collins - PART OF THE BUD LIGHT PRESENTS STAND UP COMEDY SERIES
