Set on the campus of a fictitious college in northern Indiana, and written by Visiting Artist-in-Residence Alexis De Veaux, Elbow Rooms  is a multi-media presentation theater event that looks at some of the social and political pressures confronting several male students during finals week. 
 
Special note: The opening night performance was attended by Dr. Margaret B. Wilkerson, a Theater Scholar and Historian; Dr. Wilkerson presented a public critique of the work in the Lovell Lecture Room the next day.
