The FASS Theatre Company proudly presents:
FASS 2008: Global Warming: Kiss Your FASS Goodbye! at the Humanities Theatre, Hagey Hall, University of Waterloo
This year's home-groan musical comedy from the folks at FASS (Faculty, Alumni, Staff and Students) at UW, Global Warming: Kiss Your FASS Goodbye! takes a lighter look at a very serious subject. Pitting sincere environmental activisits of every stripe against the powerful forces of Big Business, the show also manages to find a lighter heart and the humour involved in trying to do the right thing.
FASS also involves cameos from UW & Waterloo life. These include:
Thursday Feb 7th 8pm:
The Don Cameo with the Dons represented by Alanna Borris and Matt
Colautti from MKV.
Friday Feb 8th 7pm:
Deep Saini ,popular Dean of Environmental Studies
Friday Feb 8th 10pm:
The Feds Exec with Kevin Royal (President), Del Dereira (VP Finance),
Jonah Levine (VPE ducation), and Darcy Higgins (VP Internal)
and to cap the run
Saturday Feb 9th 8pm:
Andrew Telegdi, Member of Parliament for Kitchener-Waterloo
The FASS Theatre Company is serious about having fun -- we're a live cartoon on stage! We've been entertaining UW with variety and musical comedy since 1962, making us UW's longest-operating amateur theatre group. While the most fun occurs in January when over 100 cast and crew rehearse and prepare the show just in time for February, you can join us in our social events all year round! We welcome anyone and everyone and each year we see new friendships created and old ones renewed. If we're not too busy laughing at ourselves in rehearsals, trading jokes at writers meetings or sharing donuts backstage, you'll probably find us going out to a movie or throwing a famous FASS Party!
Performances Dates: February 7th & 9th at 8pm, February 8th at 7 and 10pm.
Humanities Theatre, Hagey Hall, University of Waterloo, Waterloo, ON
Tickets: $9, $7 on Thursday For tickets, please contact the Humanities Theatre Box Office at 519-888-4908. Box office open 12pm to 5pm, Monday to Friday. Debit, Visa, Mastercard and American Express accepted
