A 1995 indie comedy about death has found new life as a musical. "The Last Supper" tells the story of a group of liberal grad students who decide to play judge, jury, and even executioner with conservative dinner guests. Adapted by Jeremy Desmon and Jeff Thomson, the show explores political extremism, punditry, and morality through bitingly dark humor.
"The Last Supper" has its world premiere at South Orange Performing Arts Center July 27 — Aug. 7. For more information, visit SOPACnow.org.
