Acting class of 2013 take stage in The Pain and the Itch and Clybourne Park at the Department of Theatre and Dance's Lab Theatre starting April 27.

The play took home the coveted award over finalists, A Free Man of Color by John Guare and Detroit by Lisa D'Amour (UT M.F.A. 1996). The announcement was made on April 18 at Columbia University, which administers the awards.“
