Past performances have included traditional plays, absurdist theatre, comedies and original student productions. E-52 also sponsors social activities for the UD community, including social gatherings, field trips and a birthday party for Shakespeare.

Admission is $5 for the general public and $3 for students. For more information, e-mail senior Danielle Pisechko, director of the play, at [dpisechk@udel.edu].
