Are you a person of fashion? Take a look at the shoes in your closet. Are they comfortable? Practical? Or are they the latest style?
“Fashion,” an American farce written when this country was still young, was a hit when it debuted in 1845 and remains as broadly poignant today.
The play, by Anna Cora Mowatt, will be presented 7 p.m. Feb. 18, 19, 26 and 26 in the new Lee Eshleman Studio Theater in the University Commons at Eastern Mennonite University.
